Hawaii Kayak Fishing: I thought I'd hooked a shark but instead a MIRACLE happened!

#kayakfishing #hobiefishing Finally caught a decent weather window and was able to hit the old stomping grounds. Got out just in time to catch a few opelu at sunrise, then put some baits out early to catch the major bite time. When something took my live bait that was out on a Gamakatsu circle hook on flurocarbon leader, I thought it was a shark at first because the fight was so erratic and near the surface. Couldn't have been more wrong though...
