A number of news sources around the country are reporting a story out of Pacifica, California, that a shark bit a kayak yesterday. According to police reports, the man paddling the yak was unharmed (no news yet as to the damage the yak sustained). Pacifica Police Captain Joe Spanheimer has been quoted as reporting that the man was kayak fishing off Pcifica State Beach around 4:55p, when a shark approached, “bit the kayak, then briefly circled around the craft before swimming away.” The species of shark was not named in the report, but several news sources are speculating that it was likely a great white given their prevalence off of the San Francisco Bay area’s ocean beaches during the summer when waters are warm.

FISH ON! (carefully)
