Shark fishing at the Boils

Fishing the outflow from the PSL Nuclear power plant in a kayak my friend KC hooks into a 4 foot black tip shark only to have it ripped in half by a very large Bull Shark and it didn't stop after that. I did my best to get some video of the attack from my paddle board. Wow, that was crazy.

    Cool video...that Bull Shark ate that 4-5' Black Tip like a hamburger. Would not want to anger that beast.

    I saw your story on the news the other day but I haven't been on here in a while. Good job on those sharks!

    The bulls were 8 to 10 footers.

    Man, some of the largest sharks I have ever seen were at the boils! I've played with the idea of fishing the boils in the kayak so many times but never have. You beat me to it! Did you launch to the north or south of the boils along the beach there?

    We put in south of the power plant. It is a short paddle to the boils.
