It is the first shark I’ve ever caught, I was getting a whole bunch of pinfish, spots, and spotfin croaker with shrimp on a sabiki rig and I guess this guy wanted some too. I’m guessing a spinner shark, I wish I’d taken a more complete picture but I wanted to get him back in the water fast. [edited title so im4usc doesn’t have a heart attack]
Where is that?

sunrise park next to james island yacht club. There were dolphins and kids sailing all over, I didn’t really expect to get anything.
based on the spots, i’d say you caught a little sharpnose

I have fished that spot a few times this year. If you go to the end of the pier, cast out straight ahead a chunk of mullet on a carolina rig and you will end up catching a WAY larger shark. I have caught my fare share of large sharks from that spot while targeting redfish.
Definitely a little sharpnose

you guys are definitely right, I just noticed the fin tip color and now I looked up pictures online of sharpnose I notice the shape of the head, gills, and those spots

Somebody’s awfully grumpy, if a little joke really works you up that much then by all means never click on anything I post again, I don’t think anybody loses in that situation. Since I’ve started fishing here in Charleston (where I’ve lived my entire adult life), one thing that’s kept me interested is the helpfulness and kindness of strangers (on this site and out on the water) as I’m learning. I knew people like you lurked around here from browsing the threads I just hoped I wouldn’t have to experience it.
ElectricBass,
Once again, I behaved poorly.
It is so easy to sit behind a keyboard and spout nonsense.
I was wrong to do so.
So are you.
Congrats EB. Trust me there are many more of those to come. You’ll lose count you’ll catch so many some times.
First, Most, Biggest
I want to catch them all
Amazing how strong those little fellows are!
People may not like this, but when it was legal to do so we would catch 30-40 of those pesky things, fillet the the two little pieces off the side fresh out the water and have a nice fish fry with them later that day.
From what the grandkids and other kin folk caught off the dock a few weekends ago, I don’t think it hurt the numbers. They are fun to catch and keep the little ones entertained, but get aggravating if your trying for some meat fish. imo.
