Finally I can say it – Winter is here!! We heard things were slow in Joubertsdam this morning and the visibility was poor, and so we decided to head to the island. The Geldsteen looked murky and so this left us with one area to try, east of Geyser Rock near Wilfred’s Klip. Visibility was good and it took about 20 minutes to pick up the first shark; a very large female nicknamed ‘Tyson’ as she’s big and has a tattoo shaped scar on her face! She was massive and in top form. Before long more and more sharks arrived and eventually it began to get too hard to keep up with the shark logs! We got around 15 sharks in total but it’s likely there were more; a few we recognised from last year and one from the beginning of this; Crinckle Cut/Shredder/Luke who had been hit by a propeller. The wound is now nearly fully healed and it was great to see the shark is now enjoying himself around Geyser Rock (he was previously sighted only in Joubertsdam). To sum up, this was our first real winter trip of the year and hopefully there will be many more to come!!
