That happened to me more than ones while surfing, getting bumped & brushed really opens your eyes.. I remember as a kid, we would take the boat to Bimini every summer for vacation and dock at the Bimini Big Game Club,
Bimini Big Game Fishing Club, Alice Town History - Organizes Fishing Tournaments & Recreational Diving
One afternoon a boat pulls up, they had a big, Blue Marlin & a Shark. The shark was going after the Marlin that was on the line, and someone the Marlin speared the Shark with his bill, and the fishermen ended up with both. I know we cut lines a lot of times after seeing a Shark going after our fish, 1/2 a Sail doesn't mount very well..
