While waterstarting at the end of the Sydney airport runway yesterday arvo, a school of what I thought were huge mullet swarmed about 10 feet from me. I was a bit worried one of them might have a bit of a nibble on my toe.

When I returned to shore, another sailor who had sailed past, and thus a much better vantage point, asked if I had seen the school of baby sharks at the end of the runway.

Think I might turn around at the halfway point for the next few outings.

What size sail did the dolphins have up

Autumn is the season for sharks to start venturing up estuaries - that’s not to say there not there any other time. We will start hearing about more shark stories in Sydney Harbour / Parra river stay tunned.

Not really small sharks will not be where a big shark such as a tiger is, they dont like being eaten either.

Throwing a chicken in the water??? A live chicken or a dead one?

Apparently chicken carcass makes excellent crab bait
