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

THE DARKHORSE · 08-14-2010, 08:40 PM

There were two boats trolling that Seal cutout thingamajiggy yesterday. About 100' back in the prop wash. Apparently, like most other blind boaters they weren't too worried about running over kayaks. Once again, the pedals probably saved a life. I'll give these guys a pass, though---I'm sure it's exciting watching that cutout with anticipation, cameras ready, waiting to capture whitey with the condo in the background.

I'd chime in with my most recent GWS encounter, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't help my business. As a matter of fact---I know it wouldn't help my business

And to those who might be surprised about a Great White Shark sighting---
It's the Pacific Ocean!

That's exactly why we do...

Next time you have the chance, thank a hippie. The man in the grey suit feeds well on their beloved seals.

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.
