Great White at La Jolla
Just a heads up. There was a great White sighting at La Jolla today. I just saw the video on Fox 5. It was a mile of Wind and Sea. Be safe out there, how ever that's done.

Trust me, there are plenty of them out there. We have a perfect feeding ground for them. I recommend watching Shark week when it's out, I learned a lot of really cool things about Great Whites. I don't recommend leaving bleeding fish hanging over your kayak but I say live without fear.

yep, cruised by one just as long as the X factor one day. was cool till it went too deep to see. there's a few up at San O too. the resident, Sparky, is seen quite frequently along with a few others. one evening out at LJ i was cruising from trap to trap and 2 seals went airborn about 60 yards in front of me, took off in different directions then another hit the surface about 30 yards away and took off in a panic. didn't see any shark but i bet something scared the shit out of them.

I saw one a little over a year ago just outside the kelp line in front of the big condo building, while fighting a yellowtail.
Most of us know, they're out there. More often than many people think. As always though, keep safe when it comes to anything on/in the ocean. It's a big place with a lot of power everywhere. Aaron

I guess if it's your day, not much you can do about it.

Passengers aboard a whale-watching boat off Dana Point enjoyed a rare great white shark sighting early Thursday afternoon, about three miles offshore http://www.petethomasoutdoors.com/20...ite-shark.html |

Great White migration patter...very interesting.
http://curiosity.discovery.com/quest...t-white-sharks Many shark attacks are reported in late November/Oct. Some surfers up north won't even go in the water in the month of October. Last edited by driftwood; 10-19-2013 at 08:37 AM. |

guys, how long has this site been around? how long have kayaks been fishing off shore?
you don't need to worry. they aren't on a man hunt.

2X, You are much safer on the water than on our highways in Southern California. Enjoy the ocean!
