I board all the time out at surf side, they are always riding the waves, had a few ride the same wave with me last year.

I've had dolphins pop up right next to me while I've been in the water. Most of the time it was at Black's Beach,Del Mar and down in Mex. Once you know they are there, it's not so scary but the first time they pop or or you see that dorsal fin out of the corner of your eye, it's freaking unnerving. Gawd I miss surfing:vermeil:

For sure, last summer i was at 40th Newport. Seal pops up right next to us, was super friendly.

Seals are goof balls and typically very friendly....however, I get more nervous when it's seals around me rather than dolphins. Sharks eat seals, not dolphins.

I swam with a mermaid last week while we were on vacation in Myrtle Beach.

True story.

[TheSportsGuru]

I heard she was hot!

[DomCasual]

I truly would have guessed it was a fake. But here (http://www.surfshooter.com/DolphinInfo.html) is the site of the guy that took the picture, including another picture, a few frames later. In that one, you can see more clearly that it's a dolphin.

Now that I know it's not a fake, I have to say - that's pretty darn cool.

Who said anything about eating a seal.

[DomCasual]

I heard she was hot!

Once you got past the smell. At first, I just thought she practiced poor hygiene. Then, I was like, "DUH! She lives in the freakin' ocean!" :hitself:

When I tell people that, no one can believe I didn't make the connection earlier.

Virginia sucks ass. I am always wanting to surf on my day off and i look at the report, and it's flat. I need to get stationed in Hawaii.

Nobody did. I'm just a little more leery of where I'm surfing when there are seals, aka shark food, present.

Theres a huge pod off the coast here every summer.

Pipeline, sunset, Waimea, Waikiki, sandy. Western oahu has some good spots also. Got to watch out for the locals though, they truly believe they own the water sometimes and will square off on "howle" boys who venture out occassionally. Especially up on the north shore and western shores....dman

Nothing towards you, and i don't know you personally, but i don't believe you would surf pipe.

And i know about the locals, i have some vids that are pretty brutal. One dude got his face caved in for nothing, just some fools looking for a fight.

That's the 2nd photo .... still looks like a shark to me.

Never said I did. I just answered the question. However, they are all good surfing spots around oahu. I wouldn't venture out at waimea in winter / spring though. Killer waves, 15- 20+ on a reasonably consistent basis. Up on the northshore at the eddie quicksilver surf tournament one year, 25 +, freaking huge waves. they shut it down for a time, the sets were rolling in at 30 + , just way to dangerous out there sometimes..dman

Thats what i meant, i wouldn't even think about it on a huge day. The reef is what im worried about, getting pinched at the wrong spot.

I hear you bro. I was not telling you anything you already did not know, just kind of going through my thought process in regard to being in the water. Sorry if it came off like I was a know it all.

I was just throwing that out there. But you're right, if you see dolphins near by you're safe pretty much. But sharks don't really come in to close here, but there was a decent size shark last year off of San Clemente. He/she was just cruising i suppose.

Look at the tailfin. Its horizontal,not vertical. Sharks have vertical tail fins.

I saw a few smaller-ish shark (3-4 feet) surfing in Kauai a few years ago, just cruising along. It was a tipped reef shark, although now I can't remember if it was a black or white tipped one, which ever is more docile. That was kind of cool. They have been having more and more shark sightings off of La Jolla cove in the last few years, but I nor none of my buds have seen any. (I've not surfed there for a couple of years.

[Northman]

This on the other hand, would have me worried.

Dam, have to be careful. The bull shark is the most dangerous shark there is. They swim a thousand miles up the Mississippi river. Pretty aggressive fish, people swimming up there come in contact with them. Kind of scary when you think about it.

Thats a little scary, but great whites are not as aggressive as most think.

This is true, they rely strickly on stealth. None the less, that guy needs a bigger boat. Ha!

For sure, i was watching this show on HDTV about these people who go down off an island near Mexico. They were swimming with about six different sharks at once. Pretty intense if you ask me, and only one time were they in any real danger.

Was this the one where they were in a shark cage and got out? Or am i thinking of another shark show.

There was a female with them right? I think thats it, she went outside of the cage and almost got charged?

Yea, like there were 6 white pointers surrounding her and she decided to get back into the cage. Hilarious!

Yeah, then she wanted to go back out. They shut her down real quick like.

I have family that live over on Catalina island. My uncle owns a few boats, about six years ago he took me and some others out on the backside of the island. He wants to show us some sharks. We started chumming for them, next thing ya know we have a 13 footer . Beautiful fish, awesome to really see up close in the wild like that.

Its breeding grounds out there for great whites, very deep channels and a lot of sea lions.

[ZONA]

Great Whites have proven not to be the shark to fear most, as their attacks on humans are very rare. However..............it's pretty hard not to fear this the most..........

http://www.wetasschronicles.com/GreatWhiteBreach1.jpg


I'm a shark junky and always record shows on them. What I find very facinating are these two sharks. The Mako shark seems to have this ability to warm it's blood and thus allowing it to swim even faster, and thus this shark can haul butt through the water, and it also allows it to move further north and hunt in colder waters. The Bull shark can somehow swim in both salt and fresh water, which is totally amazing.

What's her name? I know I saw her on TV but I don't know her name. (she's beautiful)

Jennifer Esposito, she played on spin city as well as in taxi and crash and some dracula movie
