Hardly a man-eater.

:roll:

I had a Portjackson Bite my foot once, when i was down in shark bay, up the W.A coast.
Punched it on the nose, and it let go.

Man-eater or not the funny thing is he swam 400 meters, and drove to a surf club to get it off. genius!

Yeah, would of had to swim with one arm aswell, since he had to hold it so it wouldnt thrash around and make him bleed and attract more, bigger sharks.

Wobbegong, would be the Aboriginal word for it.

To us, it's know as
"That little bugger who lays on the bottom of the ocean, and you cant spot it"

It was only a baby, if he had of given it a pat on the head it probably would have licked him and swam off. ;)

If any one wants to mail bombs to me - I'm in the Newcastle region.

Sharks are pussies, we have punch ups with them all the time.

"Oi get out of my bloody water you pansy great white!" etc.

Yeah, and when foul language fails to make them leave the water, you wrestle them.
