Ha Meaksy, gotta love the salmon schools :shock:

a couple of months ago we had heaps of salmon around. One lunchtime I was at the edge about to paddle out and noticed a big school of salmon jumping out the back. They were pretty frantic which meant a few were getting chomped. Some sick pits were happening and no way i wanted to miss those, so I changed my aim point for paddling out to be at the back of the school, which would be well behind them once i got there. Once i got out a few of the lads were there and i didn't bother asking 'if' there were sharks there, just how many. No one could decide if it was 4 or 5, so we just left the official figure at 4 or 5 and then got our brains shacked out. Noah formula: Salmon = tastier than boogas (just dont look like a salmon).

Got a mate at work who surf Flinders a fair bit, surfed it about 3 days after the whale rocked up. . . . He didn't stay out to long was way to nervous.

Id be so tempted to cut out a nice sized chunk out of that thing, take it home and cook it over an open flame, maybe a bit of seasoning and some garlic. A few beers on the side aswell... For scientific reasons of course.

Makes me think twice when surfing the blowhole at flinders alone when there is only fisherman insight.
