should be going out there this weekend

For years I had the same idea, but always thought better of it considering wind/tide/currents/depth, cause I was planning on doing it on the anchor. Now I don't even think about it anymore.   Joe Gamez of Golden State Sportfishing is running shark trips to that area you can find him on FB at https://www.facebook.com/joey.gamez lots of pic and info on his page,

You could try a guided trip then see if you want to do it in your yak.

7 gills are very toothy, like razor blades, not like a leopard at all,

Haha i saw his video about the shark fishing ok Facebook yesterday, thats what got me questioning whether i should do it or not. Originally i thought about doing anchor, but i talked to a buddy an all they do is drift the bait around on a regular striper setup. So that was the key to it all

You never know where they will be. I caught a 5 1/2 foot Soupfin and a 5 foot Leopard off the ARW in my yak using frozen anchovies.

Hey thanks for the reply, how was the fight? Were you able to land it or was it all catch an release?

Has anyone fish for 7gill or leopard shark in Sf bay? Near Sausalito to be exact. Ive read threads about getting them in tomales an other areas, but nothing near the gg. I was thinking of launching out of Ft. Baker ramp and pedaling out to Yellow Bluff and looking for fish in water thats about 50-120ft deep. thinking about drifting a salmon head or guts on steel cable. I just want to land a large shark off the kayak (6ft +). Should I abandon this hope and target them off boat? Any info or tips welcome. hopefully the landlord wont come to investigate me.   

Hey, yeah i fish both rivers consistently. I mainly target striper, sturgeon, salmon, shad on the sacramento river. For the Ar I usually go for Salmon, steelhead and shad. Of course i have bycatch of catfish crap and other species which i mostly release. Late september i landed a salmon off my kayak on the Ar.
