It was good fishing with you again Andy, Jimm, Pat & Arne. While I know the halibut made for some great points and eats, I’m always fascinated by the sharks.





From my view (ten yards away) the shark caught Andy totally of guard. Your heavy rod with forty pound string and buttoned down drag loaded up lightning fast. The first strike caused you to loose your balance for a moment And even when you regained you weren’t in control - rod stuck in the holder and going backwards is not a natural position for the kayaker.

Let’s do it again next year.
