Taxman is hanging in LJ - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I've seen some marks that would qualify for a large shark lazily passing under the boat.
I've noticed these sharks don't like to fin, so you will not even know they are there - unless you spot it on the meter and get a glance as it passes under you.

From the vantage point of the tower I have seen large shadows a couple of times this month, but not anything I could confirm as a shark by sight.

Its behavior seems like a curious shark. When I tossed some live and dead sardines out into the area - No Sealion popped up to eat them.

Process of elimination.

White sharks in La Jolla: almost as rare as native Ssn Diegans in San Diego.

The great whites arent going to hurt you. Unless your kayak is red and it says tarpon 160i on the side.

Two great white sharks hear a pedal kayaker at La Jolla.

"Follow me, son," the father shark said to the son shark and they swam towards the noise.

"First we swim around it a few times with just the tip of our fins showing."

And they did.

"Well done, son! Now we swim around it a few times with all of our fins showing."

And they did.

"Now we eat the soft chewy part on top."

And they did.

When they were both gorged, the son asked, "Dad, why didn't we just eat it when we first saw it? Why did we swim around and around it?"

His wise father replied, "Because they taste better without the shit inside!"

I must say, Fishionado, that was a good one!

My son and I fished La Jolla on Friday and we pass a small boat with 2 divers inside. I asked them if they had seen anything and they told us that they saw about an 8 foot Great White.

When a spearo posts a "shark sighting" its a pretty good indication that the fish are in!
