Default 100,000 sharks mass off Florida's beaches

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...s-beaches.html

Interesting article, but it doesn't make much sense to me.

Experts say this is the time of year when sharks migrate and head for warmer waters, typically swimming close to the shore while chasing after bait-fish.

The sharks - believed to be Spinners, between 3ft and 7ft long - were heading north and swimming parallel to the east coast's idyllic white beaches between Fort Lauderdale and exclusive Jupiter Island.

Warm water currents do swing northward up the east coast for awhile but sooner or later the sharks will run into icebergs.

Isn't this about the time for the Lemon sharks to gather in the Stuart area?

And here I am, finalizing reservations for the family reunion in New Smyrna Beach, otherwise known as the "Shark bite capital" of North America!
