Stop Florida's shark feeding criminals...

Florida has banned sharkfeeding! Thats it, it's a law. My problem is the illegal sharkfeeding excursions going on off Pompamo as we speak. These now criminal acts for money are going to get more people hurt!

At the Marine fisheries meeting there were eleven documented cases and two divers with scars who were bit AT THE FEEDING AREA! I have heard another diver has been bitten at one of the feeds. There are small children splashing in the surf WITHIN SIGHT of the feedings!

Why haven't the authorities arrested these criminals and confiscated their boats? Everyone who is aware and witnessing these criminal acts should report it to Florida Marine patrol. WHY haven't our authorities stopped these crooks? These are criminal acts for money the same as Poaching! Anyone injured on or near a sharkfeed should file suit against the dive boat, It's an easy win when someone is hurt during an illegal act.

If you see an illegal feeding - CALL THE MARINE PATROL!!
