Wow!
Looks like the Nantucket Sleigh ride is nothing compared to the Alaskan Sleigh ride. :eek:

I kayak and I can not even imagine hauling something that big up onto the deck. Yea ...I'de do it , but just watch the first couple times. :cool:

i read in sportfishing magazine about kayak fishing tournament in kona, HI. basically put out huge chum balls in undisclosed area night before. next day kayak entrants are given the secret gps coordinates to the chum water and then ensues a shark tournament with fish only counting if you get them near the yak and the fish is measured bigger than the yak by a judgeboat. dont have to land the fish to score but article says these guys were reeling in great whites and tigers to 14 ft. 5k buy in with 50k winner for the tourney i think. pretty crazy as i feel pretty small in my 12 ft yak sometimes.

id do it.. i always catch small ones anyway.
