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.

But.....

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.:)
 
And here I am, finalizing reservations for the family reunion in New Smyrna Beach, otherwise known as the "Shark bite capital" of North America!
 
Well, here's some videos to get you in the mood to go swimming....













Seriously, BE CAREFUL!
 
Our local weatherman tweeted this picture a little while ago. He lives somewhere along Juno/Jupiter Beach and surfs everyday so I guess this was from today since he commented on the lack of surf and tons of sharks out.

Seems the surf fishing was good

Actually the only time I got stung was when I was a little kid and THOUGHT they actually were balloons. So I tried popping them by stepping on them in my bare feet. :rolleyes:
