The Official 'I ALMOST DIED' Thread - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Closed out 12 foot solid witches rock in Costa Rica. Multiple wave hold downs. Maxed out sets breaking in 5 feet of water. Rip current saved my life.

Never kayak fishing. That's like dying while golfing.

You may stand a pretty good chance at dying while I'm on the golf course. Haha. Cruising Costa in 2 weeks to surf, hopefully looking to get into some jacks while down there as well.

So far in my life I've had a handful of instances were I should have died given the circumstances. None close enough while kayak fishing and hope that stays that way. Several were in car accidents others just part of life. I look at it this way "Only the good die young". So I must be a real Bastard, I know sometimes I've been called that. Though as far as I recall it was always by women, OH WELL!

Don't have a story, but if you do come across me out in the water, and and I am dead feel free to use my body parts as bait!
