Great white spotted of parrakeat bay rottnest

 was playing tourist with some friends from over east showing them some fishing/snorkelling spots. Literally heading to parrakeat nek minute rangers,parks and wildlife and police telling everyone to get out the water. So I yelled out great white? And he nodded. 

 

It was like being an extra for jaws. Good on the authoritys for working together but my questions are is that the most effective way to go around the whole island and alert people and if you were to get bitten who's responsible??? 

 

Take in mind the penguin island drowning case?.. 

Which was settled for x amount of dollars. 

I'm not to fussed on great white and tigers because I can't equalise so only dive shallow,  found a cray in the basin, caught and released 30fish. Wrasse tarwhine some 40cm+jobs herring buffalo bream good fun on light gear.

 Cray pots in the water around Rotto with bait baskets full of fish heads can't imagine why a great white would stop in there .

got nothing to do with cray pots, big whites eat mammals. They would be checking out any seals around. should cull the seals at Rotto and Cape Naturaliste back and whites wouldn't visit as much

 Never fished of perth before today. Was with a mate checkin around stragglers around 7.30am Was laughin about how if you swim off perth youll get eaten.  Well in he goes to cool down as it was already gettin hot. Big bombie off the back of the boat.  Well in a flash ie less than 2 seconds this monster bronzie appears  out of nowhere  straight at him and turned off at the last second. Scary stuff.   Was only after I added get the f**k out of the water did he take me seriously.  It circled the boat a few times and was really amped up then dissappeared. We get em that big up in exy didnt think they lived in metro waters.
