Never heard of a fatal shark attack in Maine before.
Holy shit!!! My parents have a place on Bailey Island and are there now.
Trip/attack report forthcoming. Stay tuned!
The Whites are moving north.
I used to fish for bluefin tuna out of Bailey Island, they used to have a great tuna tournament every year. never thought of swimming there, the water is cold
Not sure why they would. this is from Monomoy, just off Cape Cod. There's a few seals there:Quote:

Kind of amazing there's enough fish for all of them to eat.
Oh, and Heline reviewing Yetro Tool is something completely different.
Fricking cold water.
Wonder if she had a wetsuit. Or the global warming is that crazy.
She must have been a tourist, I don't know anyone from Maine who would swim in the ocean.
Yeah, idk. Sharks are active in the Pacific where it's a 4/3 wetsuit all year. We're in trunks today with multiple offshore days keeping it super warm at the shore. Portland buoy is saying 65 degrees. I'd say we were 70 here as I just got out of the water. This is just really odd. What was more odd was my son just yesterday said that it was not feeling right and felt like a shark attack was going to happen this year. We discussed it as I thought it was an odd statement, but he just felt weird about the year so far. That is just whacked and horrifying! He's in the water more than most people, so it was an interesting statement. We've had an unusual amount of huge Lions Mane jellyfish this year and the stripers were running early. Idk, strange days indeed.
RIP to the woman.

Just because you don't see them doesn't mean they aren't there.
Like leprechauns.
2020 sucks yo.

depending on the site you hit you have a 1 in 11.5 million of being attacked by a shark and there is a whole bunch of things more likely to kill you
But most of those ways would appear to be a better way to go. No experience to speak of, just my opinion.
I’d take a quick shark bleed out over a slow avalanche suffocation.
More savage. But less time to think about shit.

I was rollin’ on a Bolinas Bay beach at midnight when this Blue Velvet kinda dude told me “you know it’s a shark cuz it goes Chompa Chompa”. I will never forget that.
So the flu is just a shark.Quote:

I was just swimming while visiting him at Popham Beach. He took me farther than I've ever been off the beach before. When I asked him about Sharks his friends said " they don't come up this far"; yikes!

I will never, never, never go swimming in an ocean again. You and your family shouldn't either.
They think the sharks are heading further north possibly because of global warming."

Michael Phelps vs a great white was the nadir and it's never really recovered from that.
Shark Party!
Some pretty hot water out there - 71 off Bailey Island right now.
Bailey Island dead center, you can zoom in or out: https://www.windy.com/-Show---add-mo...05,5,m:eRZaeeu
