...SHARK of the year! :shock:
Conditions were stellar this morning, but nothing came of it.
Paddling in at 9am in the reserve (375 ft of water) I noticed a ripple moving along about 100 feet away to my left. No fin protruding but the ripple was clearly moving along.
It suddenly turned and started coming at me, at about 60 feet the ripple sank out. About 2 seconds later an ~12 ft grey topped, white sided, pointed head, large gills and dorsal swam right by the back of my kayak at about 10 mph about 5 feet under the surface. I got a great look at it perfectly down glare, and the water is ~15 vis.
Got the juices flowing for sure.
Second trip in a row that I haven't seen a seal or sea lion all morning.
BTW: It's not April 1st.
