Here's an interesting drone video showing interactions between large sharks and kayaks, in particular kayaks dragging fish on a stringer: .

Amazing. The fear of seals and sharks have caused me to always put my catch in a kill bag, never over the side. But they sure seemed more docile than I expected.

Cackalacky supplied a couple of links about shark attacks on kayaks a couple years ago:

https://kymkemp.com/2020/05/25/kayaker-relates-details-of-terrifying-shark-attack-in-shelter-cove-this-morning/

A lot of the discussion on the forum was about what color do the sharks seem to prefer.......  Yellow seemed to be the winner  :D
