I was soaked by a thresher I was hooked up on years ago. The fish jumped 3 times around the yak, tied me up in the kelp and on the boat and then broke me off. It was 30 seconds of mayhem from hook up to break off.

I had a hammerhead attack me on my Malibu double.
I sailed in with three yellowtail laying cross/hatched midway on my deck, because the three hatches i had were to small to get them below deck. I just happened to look over my shoulder after dropping my sail outside the surfline and I seen him coming. When it got close to the yellowtail I karate chopped it with my sail paddle that got it excited swimming circle. La Jolla kayak pulled a woman swimmers out of the water it came back to me again and I karate chopped it again waiting for the low between surf and then heading in.if I had been farther out I would have had to give it a YT,since then i got a different kayak with a big hatch corba fish and dive.no scent tail coming back to the launch.later I heard that a hammerhead had been hanging around the launch it was el Nino 2015 I had 7 hammerhead encounters hooking and releasing 3
