A ROGUE two-metre bull shark has made itself at home in the Sandy Straits Marina at Hervey Bay and is refusing to leave.

While it was thought he had been around for about a month, reports have come through that he may have been stalking marine life in the area for up to three months.

Marina managers Wes and Helen Fielding sent out an all-points bulletin to boat owners last week after a diver had a close encounter with the shark while working beneath a moored yacht.

Since then boat owners have started to tell their own stories.
