Then you know that during those “far ago days” the NY Bight was thought to be a major nursery for whites yet the incidents were very low.
As to the amount of chumming done, I would throw 150+ lbs in a night from late May through Oct. and that was just one boat. Now count all the boats from Captree, Pt. Lookout, Freeport, Sheepshead Bay, Atlantic Highlands, Belmar, Brielle and other ports in those “far ago days” and double it for day trips as well. Plus, day fishing often went into November.
Now I’ll grant you, we weere not hand feeding sharks, but I seriously doubt the amount of chum being thrown today comes anywhere near what was thrown before the government started to destroy the sport fishing industry in the area.

The !@#$%^! government CLAIMS that they “stepped in”because of OVERFISHING.

Here in TX they did the same with our local BULL REDS - That’s where the “slot limit” & the “ONE TROPHY RED per fisherman per year” came from.
(NO shortage of BULL REDs here & hasn’t been, ever.)

We can thank the ODUMBO coven of far left MORONS & FOOLS for such utter NONSENSE.
(NOW, we have TOO MANY SEALS & thus TOO MANY White Sharks, too.)
