unreal, you would think a 13 foot kayak would be too big for those things as they usually eat 4-5 foot long seals, but I guess not!
 
somebody told me its not uncommon for them to attack whales, really? a freakin whale? |

				 | Why do Sharks swim around you before attacking?
 Two Great White sharks, were swimming  around in the ocean and they spied the survivors of a sunken ship in the water.
 
 "Follow me, son" the father shark said to the son shark and they swam to the mass of people.
 
 "First we swim around them a few times with just the tip of our fins showing."
 
 And they did.
 
 "Well done, son!  Now we swim around them a few times with all of our fins showing."
 
 And they did.
 
 "Now we eat everybody."
 
 And they did.
 
 
 When they were both gorged, the son asked,
 "Dad, why didn't we just eat them all right at the first?  Why did we swim around and around them before we ate them?"
 
 His wise father replied, "Because they taste better without the sh*t inside ."

				 | Sounds like a test bite to me.  Great Whites are known to bite buoys and other crap to test if it is edible or not. |

				 | He was fishing in an area known as "The Red Triangle".In otherwords, he was fishing in a known great white shark hunting/feeding area.
 That would be like swimming in the everglades with chicken wings tied to your waist and then being shocked that an alligator tried to attack you!
 
 Currently, we kayakers are at greater risk from boats than sharks.
 
 If the seals continue to move north in greater numbers, that could change, but for now I'd keep an eye out for rookie "captains" more than "Jaws".
 (I'll keep an eye out for BOTH just in case I'm wrong!)
