It was an early trip out to sea in order to avoid the strong winds of the afternoon, we timed it to perfection. We were anchored around the Island for the more favourable conditions and after a brief waiting time, we were sharking. Our first shark was also our largest shark, a big female just under the 4.5 meter margin. We had some tremendous additional sightings; one of a Franklins Gull and another of a Cape Gannet biting of more than it could chew. The Gannet struggled with its catch while being mobbed by several juvenile Kelp Gulls. Towards the end of our trip you could feel the wind starting to pick up. A great day of shark action…
