Few shark dives (without a cage) Ive gone on the company did not bait at all.They made sure to let you know they believed baiting was wrong.
However looking back they were still putting customers in danger knowing other places supplied in certain areas.
The sharks still showed up though, apparently the way I understand it, figuring there was the chance you would have food because some of the other businesses used bait.Once the sharks, mostly reef sharks, black tips, realized there werent any free meal's,they would disappear one at a time just like when they showed up.
Guess now looking back, it wasn't a very smart thing to do but truly was an excellent trip.
This guy either did not comprehend, missed out on the briefing, or just didnt care.
