Thanks for posting the list of equipment used. I'm a novice saltwater fishing guy up here in Massachusetts. Still figuring out how to catch some keepers.

Awesome video! I've heard that those Malibu's are stable but I'm not sure if I'd be standing if there was a shark on the line.

@apwdrummer2006 don't mind that moron... hopefully he's just being sarcastic, cuz if i accidentally hooked a shark that big and had only a 12' kayak between me and the water... I'd be shittin bricks. Cool vid. I'd try to sell it to Malibu
