Two Porbeagle shark in one session.

Hi all, yes you read that right.
I was out last sunday the 28th of may chasing jaws and family.
Its hard for me to believe I posting about 2 porgies in a session, as at one time I was thinking they where a myth and would be over the moon at one per season.
But hey new tactics and new stratagies have payed off.
Sunday was my third trip after them and using the Vanstaal 80lb to 130lb class rod and a Dam quick royal 990 I am well equipped to tackle near any beast out there , well I hope in anyway  .
Sunday came and the fore cast was to settle down about 1pm and I was busting to get some good under water video of sharks so I went out at eleven with the intention of getting video first and then go after sharks.
As I paddled out it was very lumpy out side the shelter of the land with the boat men getting a hammering. I hugged the shore trolling a live coalie all the way with no interest from sharks. 
I got to my mark and all was quiet I lowered my camera and coalie down to try and get a shark to chase it to no avail. 5 mins later the radio crackled into life with Alastair saying he had a double hook up and they were decent fish.
I was shaking with the excitement and although the swell had not died down yet I was baiting up the shark rod. 
As I was rigging my shark bait(takes a while when your shaking like a leaf  ) my rod with the camera on bent over and began to head off then POP the top of the rod sprung up. I grabbed it praying my camera was still there and thankfully it was, but as I reeled it in I could see a large shape coming up. 
  believe me your heart nearly stops every time they do. coming up like a torpedo and turning at the last second under your kayak and then circle you. It is a class experience.
I flung a mackerel flapper over the side and let it down about 20ft. He went after it and looked at it, poked it and swam away. I gave it a big lift and dropp and back he came like a shot and grabbed it. 
What happens next is always an unknown, will they run on the surface, dive straight down or knock the hell out of you before peeling off a 100yards of line.

This one run like hell under the surface and as he was about 120lb I could tighten the drag and let him tow me all over the place. Unfortunatley this lad found a crab buoy rope so I had to heave like hell to keep him from wrapping.

Thankfully after a very tough fight I got him up to the surface.

That shark was released in a blaze of white water and it was still very early. I was wondering will I try for another  and began to paddle back to my mark, but 100yards into the paddle as the adrenaline subsided my right should started to spasm like mad and was a tad sore for as I went and was putting me off trying again, but as I got closer to the mark I am not sure was it the excitement at trying again over powered it or it faded but hell I was going to try again  . 
Again a bait went out and I began to chunk away with bait fish and didn't see any sharks until I went to move away and out of no where came a nice 150lber powered up and grabbed my bait. Rod still in the holder it poured line off the reel with me being towed side ways, as is becoming the norm these days  .
I got the rod in hand and another epic fight was on. again lots of drag and a really tough fight forced the shark up to the surface in good time. But this bugger was mental. I had the trace in hand holding tight for the 3rd time and with a swipe or two of it's tail near filled the kayak cockpit. All in the video below.
I was just glad I didn't get whacked with it's huge tail.

Another good tussle saw a fine 150lber released and then that was me done, battered, bruised and couldn't be happier. Just recovering for the next session
