shore sharking
 

last year i made a feeble attemt at it on marthas vinyard. this year i'd like to give it a try a few times. i'm thinking vinyard sound area. anyone interested in giving this a try? anyone here do it successfully? sharkfest :)

Roy Leyva does it quite well!! :uhuh:

larry - we need a kayak to get the baits out. i stopped in to the shop he works in last week. was gonna hit him up for some info about it but he was not working

Send him a PM?? Or friend him on FB! Roy would be glad to help!!

send Dominic out in a rubber inner tube....:biglaugh:

South facing beaches at sundown. Large (LARGE) bluefish chunk on however long of a single strand wire leader you can cast. (7'-9')
Forget the sand spikes or you'll be chasing it thru the surf.
We used to be pretty good at it off Nantucket.

I'd be down. Pretty sure dead eels do damage on brown sharks...

I'd soooo love to do this....

yes they do. Live eels too. I'm no expert by any means but have gotten them for the past few years.
Once you get them close to shore hang on! Each crashing wave kinda gives them a re-charge. I've had them peel off over 100 yds after having it in 1' of water.

Caught many a brown shark fishing PINS back in the 80s.Even caught one off of 2nd beach in Middletown several years back.

Brother in law caught one down the vineyard having a beach day with the family, last eel, spiked rod and straight 30# mono :D

the more the merrier, actually we'll need a few guys if we get one.

Count me in Paul, been wanting to try it for awhile. Some good beaches real close to me.

I'd be up for that too. I'm only a mile from a few good beaches too. Heck I'd just like to observe and socialize. I'm easily entertained.

Paul, I'm in!

Paul, I'd be very interested depending on the date. Even better if I could bring my son along. He's obsessed with sharks.

I'd be in. This is on my to do list for 2012.

There's a lot of good info on some of Carolina and Florida sites

i'm over on canal by the church. so do we have anyone with a kayak? it would be nice to get a couple of baits out deeper. we could also use a few more stout chunking setups.

I got a yak....any dates and locations been tossed around yet?

how about sat july 28th. falmouth would be the area. they should be around by then. i'll do a little research and make sure thats not to early to try

Not too early. I might meet up with you guys.

I might be down for this. Going to keep an eye on things and make the long ride up if the better half doesn't already have plans. What are we talking for terminal tackle?

If that handsome beast of a man T.O. will be there, so will I....

I gotta work til 10PM that night but I'll swing by after since its in Falmouth

I'd love to get in on this. I'll over my kayak to paddle the bait out.

I'd be interested as well. I've been dying to catch a shark.

I might actually make this

I am so game for this I have just the rod for it can I bring my son he is 8

Parking might be an issue . . . I know the lot at Heights Beach are open (and staffed) until 11 . . . the others (heading East - Bristol Beach and further down Menahaunt might be locked as early as 9 pm . . . the Town seems to be inconsistent but Id hate to see anybody locked in overnight :rotf2:

Might be better off heading to the West of Falmouth Harbor - along surf drive - a great spot might be at the mouth of the Trunk river (a small herring run - aren't they all) - there is a small parking area along the bike path that is never locked - room for 20 cars right at the edge of the ocean. I'm going to try and post the spot from Mapquest - but I'm sure Professor M and some of the other locals know of what I speak - you can see the path leading off Oyster Pond Road toward the water in the attached map.

My weekend place is only a couple of miles away - I've been doing some long deferred maintenance (paint, lawn, etc) if I get it done maybe I'll have the crew over for burgers 'n dogs . . . I think the only one from the "I'm In" crew that has met me is Vic . . .
