Just read this article re shark bite offs in WA. Ive noticed an increase of this in Cairns area in recent hears as well.
Have a read, I am encouraged to see its being noticed elsewhere.

Hi John,

Yes I have just recently lost big fish to local Sharks in Moreton bay.

I have been fishing the same spot for nigh on 55 years and the sharks in the 60's were really bad and took a lot of grassy sweetlip off us at the time.

Just this year one morning I had 3 under the boat and they were waiting for us to hook a fish.

They got one big cod for sure and possibly another cod that I did not see.

Had a good feed on board so went home after that.

Have fun Haji-Baba.
