the thing about chumming of the yak is.... i WONT do it. even just a sports bottle with fish oil to get the bait going. we used to fish sharks alot. and it was alot of dead baiting with large mackerel and chunks of Bones under ballons and a Chum bucket over the side. to many time was the boat rocked by a shark (especially blues) attacking the chum bucket. my prefered method for this would be to troll two mackerel. one at the surface with a purple and black squid skirt and the other down 40 or more feet with a bright orange and red skirt or pink and blue.

the biggest mako i've personally landed was just over 6ft. no breath taker or record breaker but it was fun. caught and landed my first when i was 6. a 5 fter out of oceanside on the troll with a 8/0 and 60lb mono. yes i hooked and fought the fish. my dad gaffed it at the side of the boat.

for a shark (blues or makos) as long as its around 6ft or smaller is doable on the yak no problem. anything around 7ft would require help and an 8fter or more we'd be lucky to survive.
