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!

jorluivil · 10-03-2014, 08:45 PM

On the water undie change required after an encounter like that.

Glad you're safe.

GregAndrew · 10-03-2014, 08:48 PM

Friggin crazy Ryan. How the hell did you stay afloat with those gaping holes?

Rufus · 10-03-2014, 09:12 PM

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.

And I'm wondering if that sort of "cracking" is covered by Hobie's warrantee?

Damn Ryan. Glad you're OK. You definitely live in an area where having a buddy is necessary. Good thing you had one with you.
