Vacation sharking

I was at a Jersey Shore beach house with family last week so brought my surf gear just in case. I should have brought the heavy gear. Had multiple hook ups on 30lb that I couldn’t slow down. I did manage to get 1 smaller shark to the shore out of 6 definite shark bites. 1 50lb plus ray and all the kingfish and small blues you could want. Sharks were all hooked on cut kingfish.

We moved down here from the South Jersey. We use to fish for sharks from the beach.(Brigantine and Ocean City) We would use cut up eel chunks. What you caught were brown sharks. I have caught several over 100 pounds and have also been spooled twice. 450 yards of 30 braid. A lot of fun, especially when you clear the beach of swimmers.

This was Brigatine. Nice little town.
