Shark feeding - Thevenard Island. 6

Well today it was my turn, to go out and feed the sharks!!! It was fantastic, I would have paid $100 for that, lucky it's free for staff!!!

                                     Steve infront of our fishing charter Boat- Thevenard 1.

                                                        The shark neally got it!!!

                                                    The Giant Grouper arrives in style!!!

                                The Grouper takes the bait and the shark's can only watch!!!!

                                                     The giant Grouper!!! Amazing!!!

                                                       The Sharks were everywhere.

We reckon there were between 8 to 12 sharks, that appeared instantly around the boat, they know where they get fed!!! They were everywhere, the water was so clear, you could mostly see them coming, but sometimes they just come from under the boat!! They do like chewing on our props!!
