Leopard Sharks at La Jolla shores by Johnny Ceviche

[fishingkayakphil]

how do you like the trident compared the the prowler 15?

[jceviche]

@fishingkayakphil The Trident is way too big of a kayak for me, it sits high on water and drift too fast on a slightest of wind. I have since sold the Trident two months after I bought it.

@jceviche

I didn't realize it is that different from the prowler 15. I was considering upgrading from my prowler 15 to a trident 15 (mostly cause of the rod pod). I have seen both kayaks and the look the same, surprised the difference in performance is that big.

Come on, man. I was swimming with them just today! They don't "nibble."

I saw a baby one about 16 inches In Del Mar 17th street! it looked like a black fish at first, It was super cool. And i went snorkeling in la jolla and saw like 20

[bmxdude2471]

[vengefulasparagus]

[dgksk8er44]

[jceviche]

dgksk8er44,

I have not fish for this type of shark! I bet it's just as fun to fight them.

@dgksk8er44 we need to stop killing sharks over 70million are killed a year

[illicitfilms]

Maybe you should do some research because you don't know much about fishing and shark populations, and I qoute:

"the status of the leopard shark off California is regarded as secure, with demographic models estimating an annual population increase of 3–6% with sustainable fishing"

Leopard shark fishing is regulated, one leopard shark can give birth to 30+ sharks in one season, and their population is increasing despite being fished for food and the aquarium trade, look it up

i went their, it was so fun

they were all over the place

saw 30-50, got to touch them

[garter10895]

hey, im going to go there soon, do you know where the best place in la jolla to find them is?

[jceviche]

garter10895,

Go to the South end ot La Jolla Beach untill you get to the boat launch. You would find the sharks in big groups from 10 feet of water. Also look for a bunch of swimmer in the area who are also looking for sharks.

Good luck,

JC

I saw of few of these when I was down there in La Jolla. Beautiful sharks.

[BigScary529]

WTF, why were people swimming with them?

[pacificYO]

they are harmless bottom-feeding sharks. their personalities are similar to that of pigeons...meaning if you try to get close to one...it'll swim away.

not all sharks are dangerous.

[BigScary529]

ANY shark can bite, when felt threatened. Doesn't happen ALL the time...but....it DOES happen. I dunno, just looked like there were some "youngins" in the water as well.

[pacificYO]

they have the same mouths as stingrays[bottom feeders]. and, by that logic...pretty much ANYTHING with a mouth can bite...i've been swimming in the la jolla area for 4 years and have only been bitten once...and that was by a 7 inch fish...and that's only because i had food in my hand.[the fish meant no harm]

the only way one of these sharks can really bite you, is if you forcibly put your foot inside it's mouth.

[garter10895]

sorry but these sharks dont have the bitin tools to remove flesh, so harmless

[havoc1114]

gotta love the leopard sharks, man. they were the first kinda shark that i ever caught

[jceviche]

You're welcome. Remember with that bullet cam you still going to need a means of video recorder like mini camcorder,external mic and remote control (LANC). Then you will need a water proof box to protect your camcorder. So make sure to do you're research before you buy. If you still need help to really get a complete set up let me know.

[luckyduckysmurf]

Nice. Only difference between you and me is when I drop my line, the leopards will all disappear and dog fish/shark will take the line. BTW, thanks for the tip on the underwater camera. Hopfully, I'd buy one soon/
