You're close. I believe the house is 311 rice circle, north myrtle beach. It is cherry grove though.

Jaaaysuuus Chrroooist. At low tide that creek is mud. I've not really seen it at high tide lately but I can't imagine it being more than 4 feet. That address 100 percent looks right on Google satellite... so... the shark swam in Hog Inlet, right past all the fat tourists. Proceeded almost 2 miles behind Cherry Grove, abused chick's 3 pound redfish, and peaced out of the inlet before low tide.

I consider myself to be in tune with the comings and goings of sea creatures, but a shark that size being in CG Inlet completely and totally blows my mind.

Seriously, everyone Google map 311 rice circle 29582 and prepare to have your mind blown.

this is what I have to look forward to

SIAP

nah that's the coolest stuff in the world man. such an awesome, awesome feeling.

what are we going to do when the zombies start spreading and the sharks keep coming closer inland. we'll have nowhere to go, unless milla jovovich comes out of nowhere with a shotgun and starts capping zombs and sharks.

On 980 AM yesterday they were saying that the house owned by Gilbert Arenas is for sale for $3.5M and comes with the shark tank in the front foyer. Monthly cost to care for the sharks is estimated at $5K/mo.

I told you so

i said i would post about about some things I've done in the Bahamas so here goes.

1- The other day we did a Caribbean reef shark dive. Basically the sharks hear/feel our boats in the water and roll up in big numbers. we throw out a buoy and anchor it and then all hop into the water. We then chum (throw in a bunch of fish chunks and bait) and get them to come in close.

On this last dive we got 10 reef sharks and 1 blacknose shark to show up. The reef sharks were about 5-8 feet in length and the blacknose was maybe 2 and 1/2 feet.

After we ran out of chum we are allowed to go swim around with the sharks. Which is FUCKING AMAZING. It is really wild to be swimming with and following these sharks and knowing that they don't care about you at all. I swimming about 6 inches above a 7 foot shark for 20 seconds before i had to resurface and breathe. One of the coolest things I will ever do.

2- Longlines.

Every month we set out longlines (a 150 meter line with hooks every 10 meters and floats). We bait them with barracuda and whatever else we might have. We leave them in the water overnight and check them every 4 hours for 24 hours.

I was lucky enough to be on the 6 am check, known as the "money check." And it was. We caught one 10 foot tiger shark, a pup tiger shark (it was really quite adorable), and a blacktip shark. All were released alive and well.

The 10 foot tiger shark was pretty hearty so we got to get in the water with it after we tagged it. When it was still tied to the boat we got to hold onto it and take pictures with it. I cannot describe the feeling of holding onto such a powerful and beautiful wild animal.

Still in the water, we untied and released the shark and followed it until it swam off into the blue. Moral of the story...sharks are incredible. People misunderstand them. Oh, and I am having a great great time.

Very cool
