Awesome, I do a lot of diving around the shore. Never seen any sharks let alone GWS, good to know they are out there 😅. Was a bigger one seen long bay in summer

Nice@@BlueNeoprene. I also use to do a lot of diving around our local coast and never saw sharks. They are definitely there but must keep their distance.

Nice clip! I fish that strip from a kayak, but I don't use bait or berley during the summer because the hammerheads come in close to breed. I caught a 2m bronzie and a few other sharks in close from my kayak, but they are so powerful they can tip the yak, so now I just use soft bait and lures, and the sharks leave me alone. I wonder what that great white was eating, there are still a few winter swimmers if he gets hungry:)

Cheers mate. It can be a productive section of coast. A 2m bronzy would have been fun from the yak. I spoke to DOC about the encounter and they said the smaller whites come into the coast/harbours to feed on smaller fish around this time of year. The larger whites move offshore to known areas with larger prey such as seals. lol, yea maybe I should for forward the video to the Takapuna ocean swimming club😂.

Cool. We had one take a pannie snap off us down at Kuaotunu (coro) was stud length (2.5 metres or so) but built like a truck. Made 2 huge breaches. Pretty cool

A few years ago there was a 16-17 footer hanging around the Chelsea sugar factory for a few weeks. It was hooked several times and breached also. I decided I would no longer ocean swim in Auckland harbour after that. A 16 footer is not survivable 300m out in the harbour.

Last year we saw the same east side of Rangitoto in late November - juvenile Great Whites have always been in the Hauraki gulf, their parents who can also eat their own are out of the inner HG on their way to known feeding grounds further south. Nature is a wonderful thing. The Juveniles commonly launch themselves, wouldn’t want one landing in your boat - treat with utmost respect.
