Wow! That was fun.

I had never gone shark fishing before, but did do some in gulf coast Florida last week. That was fun! It was amazing how quickly they came to the chum we let out. We only wanted one fish, but it only took about 15 minutes to get two strikes. The first fish got off after biting through the 80# braided stainless leader.

The one we brought in was a 6 to 7 foot bull shark. That was a delightful experience that any enthusiastic angler should try once. The runs are very fast and powerful.

The fish was an easy release with no harm to the fish, except leaving the hook in its jaw. My son had never seen one up close and it was quite a thrill for both of us.
