Agreed x10

I see alot of guys geared up for shark fishing and with the reports of a few makos being caught they think is going to be the same battle as a thresher. It's a 100x more dangerous and mako are not the timid fish eaters that would rather get away from you without confrontation. They will shorten the distance between them and your yak very fast, come to color still green as fuck then be completely unpredictable on the surface. Don't risk out. Be prepaired for a very bad outcome if ypu do
