Attached on the Yak Today

So fishing down south at Vandenburg and had a way way too close encounter.

Think Sharkweek style

More pics too come but good thing no one including myself hurt stay off the water down there...


Bite One


Bite Two


Detailed bite from gap on bite was just over 24inches.





No to get some rest, killer headache from the adrenaline rush probably.

Holy cow, surf fishing suddenly seems not a bad idea.
I usually bleed and gut my yellowtail right on the water, maybe I should stop that!

Paying rent

A surfer wound up paying rent to the man in the grey suit yesterday afternoon.

What's up with Vandenburg Whites? A little territorial it seems.

Luckily all we have in La Jolla this year are some tweaky hammerheads, at least so far.

Warantee

That's pretty crazy. Send it back to Hobie, maybe they'll use it as a marketing prop
Glad everyone's safe.
