Mako 1...Irishman 0 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

They are absolutely beautiful and dangerous. Last year I had a similar experience and had my camera ready when I got it up close, it started going nuts, but instinctively I pulled up on the Fishing Pole and kept his front slightly out of the water. It took away his leverage and allowed me to take 3 quick pictures of it two feet from the side of my X Factor. When I reached for the leader it broke loose and slowly swam away. The best picture is now my avatar. The memory I will never forget, is those crazy teeth up that close. It just adds to the wonderful La Jolla experience.
