Not sure I believe that one. But I do know for a fact you can shoot seals with a paintball gun. Even in the face! I saw construction workers in SD bay last weekend doing drive-bys on 100 seals with a fully auto paint gun. Maybe we should all mount paint guns on turrets for our kayaks?

Pepper spray would work too. I wonder if someone makes pepper spray paint balls?

Or load your Glock up with rubber bullets, that would be easier than a paintball gun

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...

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!

That video was taken by a buddy, Charlie S.

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

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