Regarding the Manhattan Beach great white ‘shark attack’ on July
5th, 2014:
The fisherman supposedly
spoke of his desires to catch a great white sharks in the past.

After note, July 9th, 2014: I heard this reported late yesterday:
From “NBC 4 News at 11pm,” KNBC Ch. 4 L.A., “The fisherman
that battled the great white shark will not be cited…, officials said there was
no reason to believe the fisherman were targeting great white sharks which is
illegal in Cal.” Methinks maybe they
best revisit that one – maybe according to the hearsay I am hearing anyhow.

The more I read, the more it seems those trying to catch the
shark were totally aware of what they were doing. This, even if I am totally wrong about the
swimmer. See Facebook group “Shark Boyz Shark Fishing Crew.” Maybe all Cal. govt.
depts. should be as laid back as Fish and Wildlife appears in this matter?
