at California beaches: link to news.
"Lucas Ransom, a 19-year-old student at the University of California, Santa Barbara, was bodyboarding with friend Matthew Garcia off Surf Beach some 130 miles northwest of Los Angeles on Friday when the shark pulled him under the water. He resurfaced with his leg nearly severed amid what Garcia told The Associated Press was a wave of pure red."
Horrible.
Still in shock at the death of Fran Crippen.
In Southern California it is quite rare to see a shark that will eat you (or a part of you). I am confident that they have seen me. They are pretty stealthy.
Northern California is a different story.
How true! I spent 20 years living in the Bay area and usually swam south of Santa Cruz. Sharks were (and are) an ever-present danger in these waters.
