Of course he was a Kayak er ...

yeah saw this right after it happened... kinda scary, keep you feet in the boat!
I went on a kayak snorkel trip and we launched from that same beach!

I think this is the first confirmed kayak fishing shark attack death

Didn't the article mention 2 deaths in 2013 in Hawaii? The German tourist and the kayaker.

Yeah and 13 attacks in Hawaii in 2013 - and the average is something like 4! what the hell is going on over there?
