Jonathon My wife and I caught some baby sharks this past summer in the bay down here. Fun to catch for sure!

HerbcoFood Do they put up a good fight, I would think they would?

bocephus It’s an ok fight, it feels so much different than when you’ve been catching specs all morning which you basically skip across the top of the water when you reel in a smaller one. Then you hook on to a baby shark there is more of a fight.

Would love to try and catch one on a fly rod, my bucket list includes catching pike and musky on fly rod. Hopefully when I get to spend more time in MN i will get this crossed off.

Last time I went fishing in the Gulf (was suppose to fish for Reds) I only caught sand sharks. As a good adopted Cajun I made the best of them and eat those suckers. I AM the apex predator LOL!

Dr_Pain Shark is great & you have some of the better ones. I used to do something that pretty much guaranteed a good tasting shark, but it is now apparently illegal to do it. Still able to marinate in Buttermilk or even Milk & a mustard mix before cooking or freezing. The other trick, especially on large Makos that also could taste great was get rid of everything form the anal vent forward & put the remainder on ice right away. Great tasting shark most of the time after that, especially if you add the soak.

HerbcoFood Well, I finally got censored & I was using a very nice & proper word for it all & not the normal lingo. Wow! I am living in the wrong age.

craigrice Sharks or some form of them are probably everywhere, some even in freshwater. I know in British Columbia, when I went up there about 20 years ago or so, we caught several of those White Sharks. They despise them with a passion up there. I did not even mention thinking about eating them, but of course the Halibut, Salmon, etc. was so nice it was hard to even think of sharks.

calldoctoday They call them dogfish, They are terrible when you are bottom fishing. People here do eat them. You have to soak them over night in milk to get the p*ss out of them since they excrete it through their skin. People say it a is good and a nice white meat with no bones, have not been that adventurous yet. Caught a lot of them in the sound and off the coast.

johnsbrewhouse It took me a while. I think I finally took the leap back in the early 80’s when my brother & I were fishing on a boat & this guy kept asking us for the sharks we were throwing back. Finally I said to my brother, what is this? There must be something to it. So we figured we would keep one & try it. It took me a few tries to figure out the Milk & Mustard marinate & the throwing everything from the A Hole forward back for chum, before I figured it out. Then they made the little trick illegal, but at least we knew it worked & was for some pretty decent (certainly not the best though) pure white meat with no bones eatin. “Tastes Like Chicken!” & lots of it.

Jonathon I think the people that go in the water intentionally when there are sharks around are more than a bubble off plumb.

Hey Jonathon, have you ever seen how Orka’s fish? They literally catapult their prey. I would be more afraid of being in the water with them than a shark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7WGIH35JBE
