Not in a Kayak, but holy Big Fish Florida!

depending on which yak we use, i paddle or peddle it out and drop it in either the first or second gut or go out to the blue water and drop the bait. 5-10lb rocks as weight with a 12lb mono breakaway line attached to them.

Nice job on the Tiger Shark...

Dude, you've got some huge cajones for nose-gripping that thing. Better invest in a nice chainmail glove used by divers .

No need. its not as hardcore as you might think. 99% of the sharks i've had on the sand are pretty docile. i did have to work to get that hook out though. eventually i crushed the barb and it slid out. too much time working on it and we weren't able to get a tag in her. those 18/0 long line hooks have gnarly barbs.
