anyone whos been to the ammo jetty a few times will know of the big resident seal
was just wondering if anyone has snorkelled with it as i was snorkelling one day and the seal was hanging around near end of jetty and didnt go there as a thought it might think i'm trying to steal his fish and attack me, anyone out there that knows if its friendly

it lives there.
yesterday, while fishing there. a bag belonging to a guy next to me flew in the water and drifted about 10m out. he dived in and went for it... even though he was a paraplegic he managed to get it and while swimming back the seal knocked him twice.. he was shit scared... that seal loves to steal your tailor and goes after your bait.

i've dived under the ammo
i've dived under the ammo jetty at night and absolutely shat my pants when a big black shadow swam up to me.... only to be the seal... divers go down all the time without any problem
