Fished folly on the out going tide. 1230-1600. Action was pretty steady on blues and whiting. To our surprise we hooked up to a nice black tip. I’ve got to give a shout to my girl though. She fight this shark like a champ. Biggest shark for her. Clean and quick release and she swam off strong. It’s going to be so much easier to get her to go fishing, she’s hooked now.
Thats a good day. Nice shark Lunker.
Excellent fish there Lunker. Thanks for the report. Lets keep em coming!
Keep on castin’
Nice!

Yeah I try not to catch sharks in the middle of the day, especially there. We had a crowd by the end of it. I always use mono leaders when fishing larger baits. This leader held out. She had a blast which is all it matters. The beach goers where fascinated by the thing to.
Trying again on Friday if anyone wants to join.
I think it will be big waves in the surf Friday, early this week the forecast didn’t look good. That’s a nice one. I almost went to folly last night but went to Sullys. It looked fishy with birds, dolphins and bait, a great sunset, mild winds, a excellent night with sub par fishing. I had one baby hit knock my glowstick off and it chewed my bait up. All other lines had barely a nibble. Should of went to folly.
Nice catch!
If she’s not scared to hold that shark on her first trip that’s a good sign. I hope she was given proper warning of what/where was safe.
Nice catch.
First, Most, Biggest
She’s handled smaller ones before. I gave her plenty of warning and instructions.
