Rib out from Newquay, two 4x4s on the beach turned up, we were hugely grateful to them, they said "dont worry, your not the first you won't be the last, we do it every day, sometimes several times a day in the summer".....

Doesn’t make the local news because it happens non stop, that’s not controlling the media, it’s just it’s virtually no news at all to local life, if they were hiding that from the media then there was a big slip up in making that documentary 'rnli saving lives at sea’ 🤣

@seanmartin1565 5 ай бұрын

Of course tourists getting caught in a riptide doesn't make the local news. It happens tens of times a day all around the Cornish coast. It's not because there is some big conspiracy, it's because it's not newsworthy to locals. The tide goes in, the tide goes out, the sea can be calm, the sea can be rough, the beaches can have riptides, some days they don't. Cornwall blocking the research, it suspicious though. Anyone with any sort of sense knows great whites have been or are here in some capacity.

Another good video as always! I'll miss the sharkyness but agree with not posting dross just for content if nothing has occurred. Like you, I do believe they are there though. A guy in Canada caught a juvenile a few months ago of the coast of Nova Scotia and the water temp at the time averages between 12-16 Celsius so the UK waters are well within range. I agree the most likely proof will be a tagged shark popping up off the west coast somewhere however keep your cameras on while you're out doing other things! It's also unfortunate that science is for sale to quash any possible reports. As for Ocearch, if you get the chance, go. Most of us would gag for that opportunity. Keep fishing mate :)

Then proceeded to circle around for a while. Amazing thing to see.

There was talk of sightings in the western end of the channel in the 1970's, but some very good shark anglers/boats were looking for them and nothing was confirmed. Trevor Housby caught and photographed a shark that was returned and some did try to say it was a Great White, but the angler didn't think so. I was out with Frank Vinnicombe in the 70's and he was one of the top shark boat skippers at that time, he thought there could be GW's in our waters, but had no evidence. I think they would have been around, but who knows, with the return of the herring and with them the tuna, they could just encourage fish from the Mediterranean to visit our waters.

Nice to see you dropping another video, mate.

Anyone prepared for a cold water shock will be grand. 😉 Also, anyone concerned shoukd watch the phenomenal KZfaq channel of the Malibu Artist. He constantly films Great White Sharks swimming around surfers, swimmers, kayakers & the likes. It is very true that they are way less interested in eating us than we are concerned about it.

My cousin was in a 19 foot boat and the shark freaked him out so he picked up and left after the shark wouldn't leave and kept circling the boat! My cousin's brother saw one a couple of years ago in the same spot! At the mouth of the Mississippi we have speckled sea trout and Redfish which are being chased by huge tuna so it makes sense that the great white sharks are starting to show up around the area! Also there's a guy who was spearfishing off the coast of Mississippi and Alabama and he ran into a great white as well so it looks like the sharks are definitely visiting the Gulf of Mexico more frequently!

The warmest sea temps in the uk during thr summer months are recorded around that area just before the thames starts. Just west of there (London) is where the warmest summer temps are recorded so since that area doesn't allow the sea to mix aa much as other areas the sea temps tend the be the highest in the uk there. During the winter it would be Cornwall, specifically the isles of scilly.

Omg how exciting! I want Great Whites in Scottish waters! 😍

@lukascalvert6484 5 ай бұрын

Exciting times ahead… I really hope that the expedition finds a few GW’s in the med and that we can track them up the British isles…. I believe they’re here, it’s perfect for them…but we shall see. Keep up the fishing and exploring vids, always well thought out content..👍🏻

I say Great Whites are in the Uk 100%, Because there are big tuna in the Uk and great whites love tuna and it’s a staple food for them.

If you get to a point where evidence supports GW's being in your waters, you might want to rethink owning an inflatable boat. Have you seen that video where it shows a GW tearing a massive rip into the inflatable part on the side of a boat during the filming of a documentary?!?! Wishing you the best on your adventures!😊

I think that the return and increase in the bluefin tuna population in the inshore waters around the southern half of the UK, would indicate that GWs are present due to the similarity in body temperature regulation and tuna could be another food source for GWs.

Between the first & second world wars, Charles Laughton's brother ran a boat out of the north east, and have seen pictures of the Blue fin tuna, that his rich clientele caught which were500+ lb.They were there following the huge herring population that made it's way up the east coast, look it up, never seen tuna this big. Charles Laughton was a famous English actor who played Quasimodo, he was in Spartacus and many other high profile films, I saw the pictures in an old magazine about British heritage, I believe GWs have been coming here since the seal colony was established.

I’m 42, great white confirmation in UK this year, maybe, in my life time, definitely!! 🙏

Makes me laugh that costal businesses worry about GW's being confirmed more than they do sewage being flushed out close to our beaches.

I believe Great Whites are in UK waters for all the reasons you mentioned. Funnily enough when I used to speak to late grandfather he always used to tell me that Great Whites could be found in the Med and especially around Malta. Everyone else thought he was crazy but they now know it is true. So my late Grandad was correct and I believe you are too!

I would be surprised if you find a great white. We're in Lochinvar every year and always visit Achmelvich beach...there's not a chance that they're in those waters, it's absolutely Baltic, takes me all the time to get right into the water it's bitterly cold.

@lyndoncmp5751 5 ай бұрын

Is it colder than Campbell Island though, where they are known to have been?

@stephenmassey9845 22 күн бұрын

I have heard of sightings in Orkney. Considering Great whites frequent temperate seas, with good seal populations I would say, they are definitely around British waters.

4:10 crazy that capital interests always get in the way of the truth. Influential, wealthy people trying to protect their own interests. I would say shocking but it isn’t!

Love the colour of your Sungod lenses, are they the F1 edition? I think they are, if we have orca our waters could support them.

No they’re just standard edition, I have them in green too! Pretty good for the money

Ask the shark trust about the seals found on the south Wales coast i gave them the photos 6 years ago One had a 14 in bite radius from its just behind its eye brows to half way along its shoulder blades. It was 10 ft above high water level and there was blood spatter on the shingle around the wound.

I’ve spoken to plenty of skippers who have spotted them on our coast I think they have been here a while now

That is just pathetic. Not letting an amazing expedition come to our waters because of snobs. If sharks are here, they have probably been here a long time. Conforming it won't change that fact. I hope some day people do confirm it, even if it is a paddle boarder or even more amazing, yourself. Then the snobs won't be able to say jack. Anyway, loved to see another shark video good Sir. I also love your integrity. I sure hope you capture whales, sharks, be amazing to see them. That said, I love all your content. And I really hope to one day see proof of Great whites in English waters.
