Its me again, the wannabe California diver girl that can't wait to get into California diving. To make a long story short, I love diving, I love tropical diving, but I am afraid of California diving.My husband and I are getting our AOW on August 7th and 8th in Monterey. I posted a thread wanting info about why Califonia diving is so good and I got lots of wonderful responses. I looked at some Monterey websights and one thing led to another and suddenly I am flooded with articles about Monterey being part of the "red triangle," a 120 mile stretch of water in which 45% of all great white attacks have happened. I read that Monterey is a "shark net" and that this is where lots of the Great Whites are. IS THIS REALLY TRUE? HAS ANYONE SEEN OR HEARD OF THIS BEING A HUGE PROBLEM? My husband and I are kind of freaked out about this, especially since we were already apprehensive about California diving. Please let us know if we should be ready to be shark bait!!!
