I don't have much time to write a long report right now but I will post up some pictures from last night's Sharking Party. The plan was to meet up with Joe and Mike to do some surf sharking but Mike couldn't make it since he was on "lockdown" at home. The Party started at 6pm and lasted until 9:30ish. Joe and I were pleasantly suprised to see Dave and Paul show up around 6:30ish. The four of us had a good spread of long rods going down the beach. Joe was the first one on the board with a nice 58" Leo at 6:00ish.
Then as soon as the sunset Paul was on with a shark. At first we were all thinking Leo but as he pulled the fish to shore Joe see's the distinctive tail of a 7Gill. (Joe said some choice words since he has been itching to get the 7gill off his bucket list) The shark was close to 7' long. Maybe Paul, Joe or Dave can chime in with the exact measurement. (It was big)
During Paul's hook up my new spinning set up goes off and after a lengthy battle I pull in a nice 52" ray. (Not what I was targeting but it beats a skunk)
(Side-by-side shot of the shark and the ray)
Sorry about the crappy shots but my phone takes terrible night shots.
