Just to let you know a 2500 lb great white shark was caught yesterday off the coast of Hilton Head. They tagged it and let it go. Heads up.
Think I'd stay in the pool. shaggy

I got the worst jelly fish sting bite from man of war in Hilton head. It took months to recover. I do not think i can recover from a great white bite

I will be there in 2 weeks. I am sure it is too cold to go beyond knee high so I think I will be safe.

I'm curious how far out from shore it was caught. Oh, here ya go... "within cell phone distance" of shore...

and the depth of the water was 30 ft so I will be definitely be ok, although we do have a dolphin cruise scheduled for one day but i'm sure if the captain sees anything that seems dangerous he will turn the other way rather than spend 7 hours trying to hook and bring the thing aboard.

I haven't seen one in person. So I'm really curious how would I react upon seeing one.
