I agree! Bull sharks deserve careful respect. Over the years, bull sharks have been responsible for several aggressive and fatal attacks along the North Carolina Outer Banks. Since the late 1990s I have seen several sharks when diving and snorkeling during sailing charters in the BVIs. Most notable was a ~8 foot nurse shark at Mountain Point on Virgin Gorda and a ~6 foot blacktip shark at the Indians. The most "impressive" BVI shark report I am aware of was the large tiger shark caught by local fishermen (I think from Neptunes Treasure) in or near the anchorage at Anegada. I believe pictures of this shark may still be in the archives of this forum.
