it goes without saying that if you wouldnt eat the fish from the area you target them in, well I wouldnt even consider the sharks.

but from the surf, if caught incidentally while seeking perch, try this next time. take a big rig with you along with your usual. fish for perch, once you catch a small one pin it on a sliding sinker rig and toss it live as far back as you can, set your clicker and put it on a rod holder. keep fishing if youre lucky and leopards are in the area that is a good way to nab one of the fat ones. they are a blast from the surf.

I Fish...Therefore I Am
