Shark attack video/stories.
What's up with the shark attack posts?
Are you trying to help, scare folks out of the water, or just think its cool? Of course, post what you want. But we all know sharks exist in the ocean. We all know attacks occur. Let that shit go, please. Mike |
Like Fight Club.

Now that I'm in the water more, I can't help but think about it all the time. I know they are there, and I get that "attacks" happen, but its part of the game. They aren't called the Tax Man for no reason... |
It's like every time you pass by any kind on minor traffic accident. You see all the Frickin rubber neck lookie loos just looking to see if there's any blood! WHY.........

oooooh com'on!!!! Don't tell me you've never slowed down to see an accident:rolleyes: Saying you never have is like saying you've never slowly paddled your way to spot where that guy just hooked up. |
Hi, Jorge. I don't turn and stare, just hope no-one was hurt and want to get the hell past the traffic tie up and back to speed.
|
Actually, the seals scare me more than the sharks.

My biggest fear is worrying about whether or not I'll have to pay for lunch for Tony, Greg and Roby |
Some places we fish are sharky so we take that into consideration.

Just don't use a red kayak and you're okay.

Red kayak doesn't mean attack, I think its more to do with wrong place, wrong time. I had a nice calm experience with a whitey recently (actually think there were at least 2), and have a red kayak (video below). Been wanting to see one (I love sharks), but not wanting to at the same time.....
As long as they are under 10ft, I'm not majorly concerned. Once they are over that you can be sure I will be getting away as fast as possible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6s8LUonRxE |

I get really afraid of sharks when I'm thinking about it at home but when I'm out on the water I don't really give it much thought. I never cared about them when I was a kid in the water all summer long in HB but now that I'm older, and obviously have less to live for, I stress out on them. Funny how you're fearless when you're a kid.

There has been great whites along the beach at Doheny's for awhile now. I used to see one there all the time, named him Bob. I'm not too concerned about it. Lately they have been more common, and they've been jumping out of the water by about six feet, real close too. That is a bit intimidating, but my worry is it landing on the kayak, not attacking me. Logically, if it was going to attack it had the opportunity already.

Cuz sharks are AWESOME !! I love them. Prehistoric killing machines that filled an evolutionary niche millions of years ago and have become they best there is at what they do. How could anyone not admire them?

Saw the local NBC news this AM.....some chick recently lost her right arm above the elbow to the tax man. Didnt hear where she was but I'm assuming it was outside of the LA area.
Dun, dun. Dun, dun. Dun, dun.......... |
