    AR that's a nice shark! What kind exactly is it? And I know what you mean when you finally catch a truly monster carp or catfish and you reach in your pocket then...... "WHERE IS MY CAMERA???" lol.

    thank you, its a black tip. I actually caught one slightly bigger than that one the next day, but didn't have a camera. if you like to fish for carp or catfish then shark fishing is right up your alley. even that little guy faught like he was a monster. I can't wait to go again.

    Oh cool. I just asked that because that bridge dock thing behind you looks exactly like the one I went to in FL on vacation and there were sharks there lol. But the coolest thing I caught in FL sadly was this.......

    Re: Post your biggest fish!
    once you catch so many fish you tend to not worry about the camera.
    ive caught 18" lake perch, 38"+ northern pike, 40" catfish, 30ish inch steel head, i even caught a 60lb king salmon once(that was like pulling in a log).

    i once caught a 3.5' nurse shark.... with my hand as the bait :8: i worked at an exotic pet shop in the saltwater department, and i was cleaning the sharks tank... welllll... the shark didnt like that and bit my left hand when i wasnt looking... not too bad, the biggest fish ive caught fishing was a 22lb blue... nothing great, but im not a big fisherman....

    I'm not a big fan of the b-liners myself mike, but that red snapper and that red drum looked pretty darn tasty to me...along with the wahoo. You ever tried blackened redfish?

    20 pound sea trout in denmark, using a scented twister as bait that I used out of resignation because i thought there were no fish at all on that beach... but then...boom...:taz:

    42 pound cod, I thought i was pulling an old car out of the 85 meters depth i caught it in.

    sambo jigging, australia.

    Nothing like getting a 30+ kilo fish, often said to be just about the strongest pound for pound in the ocean, trying to pull you overboard.

    Except perhaps when a shark big enough to tear it in half assists it in trying to pull you overboard.

    To anyone who's interested, look up sambo jigging on youtube. It's the most physically demanding fishing ever.

    The jigging of the 0.5-2 lb spoons as fast as possible through a 300 foot water column itself is a workout.
