Guess What I Saw This Morning???

Did you change your shorts yet?

Got any pics?

had a close-up with a very big i'm guessing bull shark in my yak last week.. heart was pounding.. they are out there..

Did you change your shorts yet?

yes but not because of that. I was in the kayak and the shark was 3-4 feet long I'm guessing. I really didn't thing I had anything to worry about.

Got any pics?

Nope. Not for a lack of trying either. Chased it as best I could. Even stood up in the yak to get a better angle. That sucker disappeared!

Talked to another yacker out there. He said he didn't see that one but they are always out there. It's only the 2nd one I've seen in 10 years. Pretty cool sight.

I have a pic somewhere of one we caught from shore (not trying to) that was at least 4' long. Caught last May in Dune Allen...early in the morning...

I am convinced they are out there and i am staying away i anyone is fishing...

on a lighter and less scary note, we saw dolphins frolicking in the big waves earlier this week-they looked like they were having a great time!!

Otter - no more chasing sharks in a kayak!

While kayaking....

Where were you & how far out?:shock:

RiverOtter, it IS all good!:cool: Just wondering where (not that the sharks don't swim everywhere!) I like to swim out pretty far ("flirt with the sharks" as my hubby says.) When I read your post, I thought of the time I begged my husband to go out past the second sandbar to look for some sand dollars for me (someone had told me they found some there.) My husband did do it, because he is so sweet (but not without first trying to convince me to let him buy me some at the shops in Seaside, but I said it just wasn't the same.) Long story short, he never found any after diving for quite awhile, but said he would try again the next day. The following day our friends went out in the yak & saw an 8 ft. bull shark, so let's just say that I ended up with a store bought sand dollar. :lol:

We saw a 14 ft Hammerhead during Cobia season off Grayton Beach. Looked like a submarine it was so huge. Raised the hair on everyones neck.

I guess statistically its no big deal but I would be more like your hubby swimming out there. I at least feel that I have an advantage on the yak. :cool:

A family member heard last week from an eyewitness, that a shark had been photographed off of Grayton Beach ... perhaps near Gulf Trace area? and that it made the TV news? Anyone else see or hear of this?

😱 Thats why I don't go out past my ankles...... 😀 I'm only kidding but my husband takes his kayak to fish and has yet to see one. He goes out farther than I think he should.

Saw pictures of that shark...Christopher Smith...i think is his name. I have him fanned on facebook and he posted pictures. He is from PCB. It was huge! They were thinking a sand shark, but i never heard the official.

I caught a spanish mackerel from paddle board on the second sand bar last week and saw what appeared to be two small sharks with black marks on their fins. Looked like they were chasing something. I was at Watersound beach and it was about about 6:30 am. They were at the point where the 2nd sand bar dropped off.

A knowledgeable local on this board once said when you pass the second sand bar you have left "the beach" and entered "the ocean".
