Australians Hunt Sharks with Electricity (May, 1930)
Australians Hunt Sharks with Electricity
THE latest weapon devised to attack the man-eating sharks which are such a dread to surf bathers is an electrical charge. During recent tests held at Gunnamatta Bay, near Sydney, Australia, fishermen succeeded in killing a 10-foot monster with only a six-volt charge. Experiments conducted by the inventor disclose a small voltage is sufficient to kill a large shark whereas a small fish requires nearly 200 volts before being affected.
Sharks have electroreceptors that they use in hunting, you can deter them with a much smaller charge.
Personally, I think they need lasers…
I’m not sure nimrods could handle a laser.
Nimrods may not be able to handle a laser; but in the absence of sharks, http://www.youtube.com/… ,sea bass sure can!
