Very carefully !!!! LOL I take my kayak down to Myrtle Beach every year and fish every day that the surf is good and the wind is not too bad. I catch small live bait, about 6-8 inches, get about 10 and head out about 1 mile. It takes about 1 minute before a shark is on. Usually sand bar or dusky sharks.

If I can see the hook exposed, I have an 18" hook remover and it's usually pretty easy. The sharks range from 3-7 feet and they are usually pretty tired after pulling me around for up to a half hour. If I can't see the hook, I cut the wire leader as close to the hook as I can, without getting too close to the mouth.
