Ask the Webmaster and Barbara how many sharks we've encountered during bottom fishing and catching Yellow Tail, a Shark delicacy, she has hooked several they can turn a boat around that isn't anchored. Don't chum, fish and then dive, it's like having respect for the Bahamians while in their country and observing their rules, you are in shark country its their pool. Where there is splashing around and fishing there will always be Sharks. Baracuda have know to attack when spearing Lobster, that's their food and we are taking food out of their mouths, caution is always first, we have been out diving with a well known and accomplished Bahamiam diver and he came up real fast with a Baracuda on his tail for spearing Lobster, spear and clear out. I have to say Barbara and I have snorkeled a few times and have never seem anything but a huge Grouper and nothing threatening, just lucky I guess, she is lucky anyway, lived to tell about Hurricane Floyd, put up with Sinclair and his ice, and all those guys that wanted to be fed and waited on for days, maybe not a good example. What's harder the sharks or the hurricanes and all the clients wanting to know where their furniture is.
