Kochanut was asking about sharkskin line - does that mean that a shark like that would be using human skin line? Duh yea I know, I'm going to my room.[/size][/green][/font] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Not even a Kevlar vest would help - macfly55 - 04-10-2008 rolled steel thread.. heavy as I could get..

[signature] Re: [macfly55] Not even a Kevlar vest would help - tubeN2 - 04-11-2008 Why be afraid? That shark isn't all that big. The Kayak is around 8 feet long which puts the shark at only 16 feet. They just don't eat as much as you think they can.[crazy] [signature] Re: [tubeN2] Not even a Kevlar vest would help - macfly55 - 04-11-2008 its not the length of the shark.. or how big it around.. or the fact that it MAY not be hungry.. its the fact that its mouth is big enough to swallow me and that kayak whole.. and that is a thought that could end getting the water really brown and murky..

Somehow they manage to come back for more bites even with a full stomach.[pirate] [signature] Re: [macfly55] Not even a Kevlar vest would help - poky-mon - 04-13-2008 [reply] its not the length of the shark.. or how big it around.. or the fact that it MAY not be hungry.. its the fact that its mouth is big enough to swallow me and that kayak whole.. and that is a thought that could end getting the water really brown and murky..
