Dangers of shallow water Detecting the Gulf of Florida?

LOL!   There was a Pile of em.

They like Soles of Feet and White hands in the Murky Water.   Looked like fish to them. Nice little white flashes in the water.

When the Blues were running they would bit folks on the Heels all the time.  Take a nice round chunck out.  LOL!

Other facts about bluefish:

May be the most voracious predator in the Bay. A bluefish will kill another fish just for the sake of killing, even after it has eaten its fill. Bluefish have also been known to bite human bathers at beaches when they wander too close to a school of fish being hunted.

LOL! a 3 FT shark can take 2-3lb of meat in one chunk.

Yea!  I'd say that would hurt.

I was pulling fishing weights off the back side of a sea wall reclaimed by the sea.  people would cast over it and hang up.

You could walk up to it in about neck deep water.

Jump it and the other side was just full of lures and weights.

I was getting 10-20 cents a lb for them.

I could get 30 or 40 lbs a trip out.

I seen sharks there all the time and they did there thing , I did mine.

One day I wizzed in the water and the Next thing I know, I was the Popular Kid on the Block.

Like I said the water was all stirred up.  You could just see what was in front of ya Mask and Fins.

Getting a breath of air I seen a Fin cut the swell just before the wall.

Ok, That's cool.  Down I go for more.

Next Breath, I See the Fin, Fin, Fin and More Fins in the Swell .

This time I pay attention.

 I had a wet suit top on, 10lb belt plus the lead I collected over the past hour.

I sat the collected goodies on top of the wall and just kept looking.

At first I thought they was on some Mullet.

Then I got bumped once.

I started up the wall to get over and got bumped three more times before I could get up.

The wall was only 3ft under water so they could have followed me if the wanted.

Yep, Yep, Yep......    Don't Pizz in the Pool!

Back in the 60's, you could go to the Wagner  Wreck site south of Sebastian Inlet .  the shore dropped off more rapidly than other beaches and see sharks within 6 feet of shore..They would patrol the beach shore line.

Have not been down that way since 68..Always meaning to go up in the garage , find my notes and figure out if a couple of spots can be found. Ladders and I don't do well with each other... Also, don't have a handle on where to stay, .....So, maybe in the next life time..Can you still camp at the park?
