Boatless Fishing Forum, Reports, Info

i fished for an hour before it got dark. Caught around 10 bluefish and 1 bull shark.

nice job man, tearin up those blacktips huh?

yesterday i did. today i got a bull

nice job on that bull and blues with only an hour to fish.

Thx for the report!

How far out do you have to kayak out the bait for a bull?

nice Bully

i havent been using my kayak, ive been using live bluefish

cool bull.

Nice Bull.

nice bull

we hooked up on 6 sharks total from about 9:00am-11:30 yesterday...beached 2 - 1 spinner and 1 lemon (weird seeing the lemon this time of year). Had one Blacktip on that was monsterous..this thing has to be close to 6 feet...he jumped spun and my 80lb broke, must of got caught in his teeth or rubbed on his back.

Now that's a productive hour.

thats weird,how big was the lemon? on Sunday we caught 7 spinners from 2 until it got dark,we had 1 other bite that i missed and there was a lot of bluefish and mackeral

didn't measure but about 6 feet.

Good post and nice Bull.

Really a thck healthy Bull. Keep posting man. Me and a friend are going to be around there in May. I'm getting fired up seeing what you guys are doing.

Good to see you out catching some fish greenie! Its been pretty rough though lately huh...lol....me and emerson caught two small tips on sat..used some pomp carcasses for bait but its pretty rough out there.....havent been able to get ahold of you times are tough u know...nice fish

Nice fish! Is that a star rod? If it is, I got that same rod, lol..but mine's only a 30-60 lb class

its a 7ft crowder 30-80lb

You're just tearing them up dude! Way to go! I wish the fishing was like that when I was there back in December, but the cold fronts effed everything up...

its a 7ft crowder 30-80lb

yeah I thought it was 30-80 lb, I was looking for crowder rods too, but the local tackle shops didn't have the models I wanted, I like using 7 and 8 ft rods.

Healthy looking bull

i heard u can consume them with a certain size limit ?

im not much of a shark fisherman and i never have and never will harvset them, but a fisherman will never stop learning

this one guy said he forget what size limit, but he said they are good eating, even though i would never eat a shark

ive ate small ones before and didnt care much for it. thats why i just release them.

Blacktip shark is very edible.

i release all of the sharks i catch, but every season i keep one male blacktip because the females are full of pupps (you only need to keep one because there is so much meat). have you ever heard someone say that fish tastes just like chicken? i think fish dosent taste like that at all, totaly a different texture! but blacktip steaks taste just like chicken and they have a texture just like chicken. there awesome. ive never tried bull shark.

I kept one small blacktip last year, and still have some vacuum packed in the freezer. It is some of the best fish I've ever tasted, but I did NOT think it tasted like chicken!! But given the choice of BT or Snook, I'll take BT every time!!

This is right on. One blacktip in the freezer lasts awhile. I think keeping one is ok as far as all the other sharks I wouldn't even kill one.

thanks for the info guys ill consider GOING AFTER the shark first before i get dragged back onto my snapper list, then see from there
