    well, some areas are prone to more dangerous thunderstorms that produce more lighting, statistics are always going to skewed, that is the point of a bell curve in statistics and what not. Obviously people who do not come to the beach have way less of chance of being attacked by a shark, I don't believe anyone disagrees with that. It is the same with flying, you are more likely to be struck by lighting then to die in a plane crash, however people who do not fly have zero risk of dying in a plane crash.

    The fact is they are always there, and statistics prove nothing. Also, when at assateague, are you one hundred percent sure they are sharks? I have been out there and swore I saw a shark and freaked out, however turned out it was a dolphin, actually a school of dolphin who were feeding on the inside. Scared the hell outta me though.

    Probably migrate south as the water drops. did a little digging last night and great whites like water between 53 and 60 degrees so I'm betting they aren't anywhere close to us in the winter.

    Just like all fish, sharks move to deeper water. Possibly just offshore, a little closer to the warming effects of the gulf stream and the atlantic currents.

    Theres definately some around. I remember an article from last year in the paper and it had a picture of a 6ft Thresher with its tail out of the water at the inlet. Also, if you have surfed the wedge, i have seen sharks in there eating a dead horse once after a storm.
