I looked around for someone to help me gaft him but the closest person couldn't even hear me. I said fuck it I got this, so I leaned back a pulled him to the front gaft in hand. That when I seen him come up. Tiny eyes big body short tail going nuts. Diffinitly caught me off guard he was a foot away from the yak and I didn't know if I should risk it or say fuck it. I QUIKLY (3min)decided that I like my extremitys and cut the line. WHat would you have done?
PS drifting north @ 90ft

I'd do the same thing you did...unless it had my favorite lure in its mouth, in which case I would spend an additional three minutes contemplating whether I should cut the line, or attempt to retrieve the lure.
I don't even know what to do with a shark, so I would def let it go...
