Monstafish nailed it. Great advise in his post. Start out in the bays perhaps and build your comfort zone. Surf skills are a great helpfor safety, saving you gear, and opening up new areas and launched besides LJ shores. Practicing self rescue is vital because eventually you're gonna tip over. You can even practice in a pool.
And as for sharks; just do your thing. Bees, dogs, ladders, slipping in the tub, n choking on grist kill so many more people. I've been yak fishing 15 years, surfing for 35, 10 I'm Humboldt county, spear fished for 15, and been on the water my whole life and have see only seen 1 shark that worried me. Off Nags Head in north Carolina I hooked a 6' black tip with cobia fishing. Cut the line and we went our separate ways. Mike
