I've heard of people
I've heard of people catching them out on the three mile, but have no idea quite how or how often. Would be interesting to see how, and perhaps give it a crack sometime.
Something I wouldnt mind trying as I havent actually caught a shark bigger than one of those small greeneyes out in 250m of water.

agreed have got gummies and whaler sharks near the south cardinal marker also my deckie got a 20kg mullowway there last year too
getting the bottom line final answer from a bunch of blokes that use false names and put smiley faces at the end of paragraphs is not the best place in the world to get the information you seek.

Gummy's are actually quite
Gummy's are actually quite placid and not like other sharks. Although Gummy sharks are revered as one of the best eating fish in Melbourne, I would chase other sharks. More fun. More fight haha

bities, good fun on a handline
we used to get at least a black tip or 2 or even a bronzy about 100mts off the back of the maac club, just burley up hard for an hour before sunset then chuck ur rig out on sunset on a float, you shouldnt have to wait long.

Hope the big sharks know !
Hey Naylor
Good luck with your shark hunt !
Was just wondering how the big sharks know that your not targeting them ?
A 5 metre white would make interesting by catch

I'm sure a 5m great white
I'm sure a 5m great white and a 1m gummy will fight a little different. I've hooked up to a few unstopables, you just snap them off before they take all your line. I dont think anyones going to try and land a shark bigger than the tinny (or close)...
Besides, I doubt he'd be using half a seal carcass as bait, lol.

I wont be using bait any
I wont be using bait any bigger than a mulie or herring and as for burlie i was just gonna cube like u would for shallow water snapper, i dont think anyone on this site would have hooked a gw snapper fishing! But thanks for your concern.

Just Mess'in with ya
However if you use a mulie / herring and hook a small gummy and have that thrashing around .......you may get unwanted attention from something bigger.
We quite often recycled the little ones ..........into big ones up north.
Tie a good float to your anchor rope in case you have make a hastie retreat to avoid that be dark grey stalker .haha
