Just heard about a local guy that got badly bitten by a seal a couple of weeks ago in my local harbour, he was shooting mullet and had a couple in a net bag around his waste.
Apparently he then swam past the pier structure and out of the dark something flew out at him and went for the bag of fish, it missed the fish and took a large chunk out of his leg which resulted in a very nasty injury.
Just goes to show that even though we don't have to contend with the sharks in the UK we should not be too casual as there are still things out there that can give a nasty nip!
