Great!

I always try and trick myself into thinking they won't be here for a couple more months.

Don’t know Scott but do know of his research of many years on the South Farrallon Island with Pete Pyle. If nobody has ever read “Devil’s Teeth”, by Susan Casey, buy the book! She chronicles her time spent with Scott and Peter as they did their shark research at South Farrallon!

I do know Paul Kanive, who did research work with Scott…a few years back I got to jump on board with Paul on his boat off Tomales point for a session and am here to say for those who’ve never been up close to a White Shark…they are far larger than a television perspective!!!
The first shark that came to the boat seemed huge to me, the girth something to behold. I nearly crapped as it cruised by the boat some 4 feet away. I was astounded when Paul said, “it’s only a 9 footer”.

Some time later he lured another to the boat and it was WAY bigger than the 9 footer. Its dorsal fin appeared a ways behind the boat and was noticeably taller than the first shark to appear. Paul stated matter of factly that this one was “an average” sized shark at 14 feet. It was GIGANTIC in all proportions and something I shall never forget seeing…..it was a gift of a lifetime and sent my heart racing!!!
