That's what I'm talking about.

remember....???
 

Randy, That's a 18ft Great White! That shark shield is only going to
tickle his pickle. Don't kid yourself...

I am not planning to test the shark shield on Saturday....I learned enough from your story to know wait a week or 2...:D

That video was taken by a buddy, Charlie S.

Whites are always out there, one of the reasons I bought a skiff :D

Oh nooo, I thought those dolphins kept us safe. So anyone with any advice on what to do if a shark starts being to nosey on the kayak?

Start to paddle way from the area just a little faster than your buddy!


:D

Deploy your seal decoys

I guess if it's your day, not much you can do about it.

They do make pepperballs for paintball guns cops use them to disperse crowds at riots, ive trained with them in the corps.

uh oh....

Passengers aboard a whale-watching boat off Dana Point enjoyed a rare great white shark sighting early Thursday afternoon, about three miles offshore

Many shark attacks are reported in late November/Oct. Some surfers up north won't even
go in the water in the month of October.

guys, how long has this site been around? how long have kayaks been fishing off shore?

you don't need to worry. they aren't on a man hunt.

2X, You are much safer on the water than on our highways in Southern California. Enjoy the ocean!

Look, there are gws all over the place around here. San onofre is a confirmed spawning site (one of the only in the world). Don't fear it. Just don't go trick or treating as a tasty seal a mile or 3 off shore. You have a better chance of being killed or hospitilized while landing your yak and being impaled by your paddle than eaten by a shark. Or...live in fear, and quit catchin fish. Leaves more for me.

I carry a 6' tapered gaff with a 3" SS hook protected by a tube cover, he get's too close to me and I can 'spear' him in the nose with the bend of the gaff hook (if I'm not mistaken that's a sensitive part of the body) just like giving him a bloody nose! :boxing_smiley: :the_finger:

How quickly we forget when we jump on our yack and push out into the big blue, that we are entering the food chain.

Ahhh yes.... Natural selection will take its course....

sharks are good to eat
