Shark Fishing - Placing baits

Thought I'd get some strategies from you all on placing baits for surf shark fishing. For the past few years I've tried a kayak (which I rent) and they either have holes in them or the waves are too large @ the 2nd sandbar for a novice kayaker like me to get over. Last time the kayak flipped and the bloody stingray got wrapped around my leg. An unnerving feeling for sure. I'm hell bent on catching one this year and need all the help I can get.



Thanks!
