Big Bull and Lost Hammer

I fished with Ryan from Team Infinity and we had a great night. Before I could get back from paddling the first bait, we hooked a big shark, which turned out to be this bull shark:

THE VIDEO

Video is up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGa2Qnjhq4U

This bull was massive! A 5ft cobia followed the bull. We didn't get any photos, but did get everything on video. We spent 7 minutes trying to get the cameras to work and I was worried about the shark, so I skipped the measuring and hook removal (just cut the wire) and released her. The video turned out great, it is being edited right now. It should be up by the end of the week.

Next I kayaked another bonito (half piece) and 10 minutes later we hooked what I am 100% convinced was a hammer. He hit it slow, then swam in for about 30yds, then took off like a rocket! The line was ripping of the Avet 80! I set the hook and tightened the drag. I had him on for about a minute. He peeled at least 100yds on a heavy drag. All of a sudden the line went slack and the fish was off.

I paddled another bait out and it wasn't touched. Colby (Bull Buster) met up with me and he took out a bait. It never got touched. We had fun and look forward to the next adventure.
