Oh man what a night... guess i'll just start from the begging but first i'd like to say a Big thanks to Ramon and Brant for really opening world to chase the big critters. :D
Started off about 2pm and landed a PB hornshark within 20 minutes. i'd say he was around 30"

After this i had one bust me off on the rocks within 45 minutes. and then i got a run on my Light gear 30lb. the hook just fell out of its mouth 3 minute into his run.
Light got picked up, 20 mins later this 40"ish hits the sand. great action on my symetre 4000 lol.

Angel shark!! Pretty rare ehh?
8) :wink:
Got a story with this one. I was reeling up to reel up and i thought i was snagged on a rock cause thats how it felt. I tightened up the drag thumb the spool to play with the pressure before i tried some angles. i start walking back while thumbing the spooll. and it felt like i was seaweed and it came loose. But i was on an Angel Shark! He was Posted on the ground and wouldn't budge at first! thought i was snagged lol! never saw a bite so i was confused. start reelin em up and felt some shakes!. couldn't tell what it was at first. But it was heavy felt atleast 25 lbs.

Woww what a day! i'm soar. i'm stoked! normally i would wait till the next day to post up but its 3 am. I've only caught 2 big bats prior to this. and 1 was on the pier and the other was last week off the surf! Long rodding welcomed me warm. lol Thanks for reading my long report guys!
After releasing a small one. i walked out in water to cast. I felt the ray touch my foot! good thing i didn't get stung. it was for sure the one i had just released.

Jealous of the angel shark. Someday.

Good post 8)
I'm lookin for my first as well.
They sure do pack on the weight like bats.
I tailed a larger one in that spot for some guy and was surprised how heavy it was.
Those horns are common there as well.

Ya it was really surprisingly heavy! i saw a video and these guys on the pier said the one they caught was 47" 50lbs. so i'm think mine was like 35-40.

Epicness indeed! Congrats boss on all of those catches, but especially the angel shark. I've caught a monster one in my boat before, but never from the surf. Job well done and congrats on all the PB's!
