Bumped on the yak

[Tman]

Paddled out early this morn, long read..

So made bait pretty easily and headed out to the outside corner.
As I am paddling out, getting tailed by something...keep looking back, realize it's a big ocean voracious predator...holy crap.

Realized I was gonna have him on my tail for a while. Tried to paddle away, he kept following me. Then, he started bumping my yak...

WTF?

I start paddling away, he follows me..

I go dude, what's up?

I was afraid he was gonna take his parrot like beak and grab the bow of my kayak and flip me over, then devour me like the tentacles of a jellyfish.

What should I do, bring some jellyfish to distract him?

When I called him Dude, he asked if I was friends with Nemo...
