Not totally clear that it was a great white, from what I've read (though I wouldn't bet money against great white, the sevengill is a possibility).

I mostly swim the La Jolla Cove for open water stuff, which though it has thousands of smaller sharks almost within arm's reach, I don't think larger sharks frequent that area.

For the occasional surf entry practice, etc, I just don't think about it. Thousands of swimmers and surfers out there every day. Though it is hard for left-brain knowledge of statistics to override the right-brain visions of shadows lurking in the depths.

I only swim in the bay. I am not getting in the ocean.

SF Bay? The one with the video of the GW having lunch off the beach two years ago? ;)

No, San Diego Bay XD (Glorietta or Mission Bay)
