Carlsbad Scare - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I always keep my fish on a stringer inside/on top of my kayak

While spear fishing I've had my stringer buzzed by a shark only once and that was enough. Luckily it was a grey smooth hound and not a larger shark that I need to worry about. But unnerving none the less. I've also had to fight off and eventually loose an entire stringer to a sea lion that was as big as me. So I won't leave fish on a stringer in the water anymore

As soon I shoot a fish it's on the boat asap

On the kayak it's inside if it fits or on top of it doesn't
