But what about the hordes of Leopard Sharks...can't they at least get a mention as they voraciously devour a crab....media will make a circus of this. How about from now on we refer to hammers as "Big Heads"

Jorge maybe your life insurance has a clause than covers accidents but not being eaten by wildlife! Just saying!

I like the idea of trying to blame as much harassment on the sea lions as possible, anything to get rid of them. Has anyone else noticed a little lack of them as of late? Are they being eaten(I hope)by white sharks? Or did they get too warm in 76 degree water? It has been more pleasant without so many, what ever the reason. Let's just blame them every chance we get!!

When I landed yesterday around 2:15 pm, as I was dragging my kayak out of the water, I was approached by Hannah Mullins (a reporter with 10 news and her cameraman). She first asks me if I caught anything, I said nothing I wanted to keep. Then she asks if I saw any sharks any hammer heads, I said not today. She ask if I had seen them before and I say, Ya, they have been around for a couple months now. She asks surprised, a couple months. I said about couple months. but only now did anybody bring it up. I said we've seen a lot of other sharks that are a lot more dangerous than a hammer heads. She sounds interested and ask me if I want to chat about it. I said no, she sounds surprised and says, No. I said not really, I think it's been written about too much already, and people just misinterpret it. She looks puzzled and says good bye and walks away. I wonder what they would think, if we started talking about the GW's and Makos we have seen or hooked up, really close to the buoys the swimmers like to swim to on their way to the pier or shores everyday. I think the swimmers are the ones that are nuts, swimming in their area and close to so many seals. I think the last thing we need is the public to think the kayak fishermen are the ones responsible for the shark when they have been in the area all along. I mean it's their back yard and we are all just passing through. Enjoy the beauty of seeing then and leave them alone.

Excactly Ryan. I guess it's the latest story, so they run with it. The public has no clue what's out there, or what is swimming under them, while they are getting their exercise. They don't get it, that the sharks are generally not interested in them. They are not as lazy as those f***n seals, but might be attracted to the area because of the numbers of seals. Who knew sharks lived in the ocean?
