Today I had John Ribble and Paul Rocha and his son aboard for the third year in a row shark fishing. These are some awesome guys and I look foward to our trip every year as much as they do. We just click and a good time is had by all!
In 2006 we slayed them and they were hooked from there on! 2007 we missed out due to no shrimp boats that day. Well today I was able to redeem myself and it was a huge relief to do so. The first 3 hits on 5o lb stand up rods with 200lb braided line with 9/0 hooks came off. We quickly realized we had some monsters, they were bending out 9/0 hooks!!! Next hit we kept it on, they fought it for 45 minutes and passed the rod between the 3 of them. Up comes a 131 lb shark and not a minute too soon by the look on their faces. I think we went 6 for 9 today with a few more runs that we didnt even count. We also pout 2 more in the boat about 80-90 pounds!
Thanks guys! I am already looking foward to next year!
Here are the pics!
