New spot, new PB 8/26/16
« on: August 27, 2016, 08:35:47 AM »
Dad met me at a new spot I've been wanting to try. Seemed like a it has a lot of potential, but still no sharks.  >:( We fished from 5-9 with only a few small bites on the long rods.
I did land my PB SNGF though!
45"!


Caught on more tractor that was about 36".
They are fun to catch when nothing else is biting.

September has always been the start of the run of sharks so I always figured they ran north or deep during the summer.  I thought for sure one of us would get an exotic shark off the surf this summer.

Anyway, congrats on the PB tractor!  I always dug shovelnose.  They are such a cool looking fish and fight really good for their size.
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

Yea, that SNGF had me fooled for a bit.  I really thought I had big Leo or a small 7gill.
