Supper is surfed aka meals on wheels

Found in False Bay though not exclusively, as it is rather wide spread in temperate waters; this shark is family of the houndshark and has many names; Tope Shark, Vaalhaai, School Shark and Snapper Shark. It is also sometimes referred to as the Vitamin Shark, as its liver is very high in vitamin A. And as for the name; Soupfin Shark, you would have guessed correctly if you had guessed that they are fished for their flesh, which is eaten in countries from Greece, Mexico to Britain and of course Asia.

Reaching a maximum of 1.75m in the male and 1.95m in the female of the species, this shark is small, kind of bluish in colour, with a white under belly and a shallow body and longer snout. It has a crescent shaped mouth with backward facing, serrated teeth, while the juveniles have black markings on their fins and are born from the ovoviviparous females.

Really good video! Not something you see everyday.
 
No bait fish balls - what were they doing that close to shore? We get the fun ones here - white pointers, bulls with the occasional bronze whaler and shovel nose. 🇦🇺😎😉

I guess they keep getting the message: "The surfer you want to bite is not available at present, please call back later..." 🦈
