By Nautilus Staff on December 8th, 2018 in Captain Mike, Guadalupe

We have now identified over 300 individual white sharks in the bay that we dive in. And most astonishing of all, we had trips with 3 dive days in which we saw over 50 different great whites.

Fortunately, the mako did not hang around and the reason was soon clear when a couple of 12′ male great whites showed up and seemed to be taking turns to make a run on baits we had out. Despite the best efforts of the crew on the bait lines, the sharks seemed to be on a winning streak.

We’re steaming home from Guadalupe Island and it’s resident great white sharks after our best trip of the season (so far). Sharks, sharks, and more sharks were around day after day with Bruce and Shredder being especially cooperative and helpful. It almost seemed that by day 3 they were more interested in circling around our cages than going after the tuna bait!

Cleared out of Ensenada last night on our first great white shark trip of the season. We are all very excited to get the cages in the water and starting diving tomorrow morning. The boys just finished cutting up tuna bait on the back deck and we have a 200 litre barrel full of lovely guts, blood and tuna gills ready to start scenting the water.
