It's so close to the ocean that it doesn't seem too surprising to me. But I don't know too much about normal shark behavior.

Maybe Jones also? And for all the doubters who said I didn't see a Great White a few years back at the break at Del Ray Beach, I say, SUCK IT! http://www.nwkite.com/forums/t-30646-0-asc-0.html Gman Since 11 Feb 2006 4910 Posts Portland Unstrapped Thu Nov 17, 16 11:41 am     could be a salmon shark - they also get really big not too surprising - tho does keep you on your toes - we had a grey whale nearly take us out in the kayak in 10' of water on the channel side of lot D and last year humpbacks went up past the Megler bridge - the anchovies gets so thick at times it pulls your fishing line    Salmon_Sharks_2014_003.jpg  _________________ Go Deep! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eu2pBpQolKE Kraemer Since 24 Apr 2006 1736 Posts Sky Pilot Unicorn Captain Thu Nov 17, 16 12:41 pm     Didn't look like salmon shark G-- For sure GW barfly Since 31 Mar 2005 1214 Posts Portland BRACKISH Fri Nov 18, 16 9:50 am     Sasquatch wrote: Lot D, especially the North bank on the river vs the lagoon just got a bit less crowded with newbies Maybe vet riders too?

It's definitely hanging in your craw for way too long, just like that seal in mouth of the shark I'm pretty sure nobody thinks sharks aren't common in the PNW.

Its way more fun to think of fun things when kiteboarding. pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Fri Nov 18, 16 5:51 pm     I would so finger bang that thing. _________________ Bury me standing cause I won't lay down!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVvAw2VFR4Y&feature=PlayList&p=FB7233C37686AC79&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=34 Wanna-Go Since 14 Sep 2009 95 Posts Central, Wa   Sat Nov 19, 16 4:41 pm     Go for the Gills!        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
