Great White Shark bites kayak
5-17-2012
Steve Carson
Angler Joey Nocchi of Paso Robles will think twice before paddling his kayak out into the kelp beds off Central California's Cambria again. Nocchi was fishing near shore at Moonstone Beach on Saturday, when an estimated 12 to 14-foot great white shark chomped down on his kayak and knocked him out of it. The big predator then swam right over the upturned kayak while ignoring Nocchi.
In typical great white fashion, the shark immediately lost interest and backed off, allowing the untouched Nocchi to get his now water-filled vessel safely to shore. The attack took place about 15 miles from where former Chico resident Deborah Franzman was killed by a great white while swimming about 75 yards out in 2003.
