I keep one attached to the front hatch on the inside. Thought about that last time I had one following me but did want to risk falling overboard to get it + want to keep an eye out for where the shark was approaching me.

I think the boom from the flair gun would detour the shark.

Using a bang stick will likely damage the shark eventually killing it.
