Fubar512 Posted October 16, 2014 Author Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) Impressive; some of those looked like baby threshers. I did not see any threshers in that mess. They all appear to be either blacktip or spinner sharks. Even a juvenile thresher would be quite easy to distinguish from either of those two species: We're going to need many boats..... Dave, don't wuss out. You don't need any boats, you don't even need a long surf rod. A short boat rod, a nice mackerel bait on a cable leader, and an underhanded lob is all it would take to put you in the action......And I'll bet that mackerel wouldn't last to a ten count in that mess. After that, it's just a matter of hanging on during the first run or two, and then it's a matter of reeling'em up on the strand. Then tag'em, unhook'em, and let them go so they live to fight another day. Edited October 16, 2014 by Fubar512 Quote
