added a few small sharks to the list
« on: September 29, 2021, 08:43:27 AM »
I haven't been doing much (or any) land based shark fishing this summer, but I have added a few smaller shark species to my lifelist.

Atlantic sharpnose - bycatch while bottom fishing for red snapper. First one was cool, next 20 were not.


Spinner - trolling an X-rap 10 along the edge of a 15 ft reef where it drops down to 25 ft sand bottom.


Spiny dogfish - party boat in New Hampshire. My first time fishing the Atlantic north of North Carolina.


Also saw this guy while snorkeling. I kept my distance! ;D


The mullet run is in full swing over here right now. I need to get out and try for bull sharks again.  :D

Well damn Ben!  Loving seeing those East Coast critters and it doesn't matter if they are shore caught.  I have tabs for every type of fishing on here and we'd love to see all the cool stuff you're catching.  8)
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

Looks like a lake in NH. I've also been digging the east coast updates and reports would be cool.
