Hi again guys

Just had 2 other things to add, firstly, to back up what Griff says, I spoke to the Great White research guys, and they all agree, powerheads are not going to help. If you see a white, he wants to be seen, and he's just passing thru. If he's interested in you, you wo'nt even know whats hit you. ( They're not known to 'bump'.) See attatched pic. ( False bay, shot by Chris Fallows.)

The other thing, people comment about Cape diving and whites, but it's not really that serious all the time, remember that most our dive sites have SERIOUS kelp forests to hide and hunt from...and that really helps with peace of mind. In short, bad viz is ok if shore diving in reefs and forests, but in the open ocean, it makes me nervous.
Swimming back to the boat off- shore with a bleeding fish in really bad Viz like I did yesterday was probably the dumbest thing I've done for a while...most times you get away with stupidity, but every now and again, someone does'nt. I wont get into that situation again. You can hunt in bad viz...provided you use common sense !

Cheers

Jeff
