My "GIANT" Angel Shark - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Nice report, love the pictures. I love catching those, but I don't like messing with them on the release. I was out fishing with Old Rookie about a month ago and hooked one of those using a lizard fish for bait. At first I thought a big Halibut also and was about to net the thing, but then I saw the tail and new what I had. Beware of the teeth for sure, I'd rather have one of those guarding my house than a dog. I've seen those teeth do some serious damage. Many people will stick something in the mouth to keep them from taking a chomp out of them but I found it easier to just cut the line a safe distance from the teeth.
