I was fortunate enough to see a thresher shark on my first dive in Moalboal/Pescador this past July.

Didn't see anymore threshers after that and generally get the impression that in July luck was the primary factor!

Given that seeing threshers amidst the sardine ball is, IMHO, a much greater attraction than seeing them alone, I'm hoping to repeat this experience sometime in Moalboal!

Any comments or feedback as to what "season" can increase chance of seeing threshers @ pescador? ie, where I am not just counting on pure luck! Is it Apr-May-June? How is Nov-Dec?
 
Margmarg,
I did do some research, spoke to several Dm's and came to my own conclusion that there really is no discernable pattern. They seem to be seen year round but you just cant predict a sighting. It does seem however that once a sighting has occured they will be consistent for a week or more. Sorry I was unable to figure out a real "season".....

Cheers,
Roger
