Bull Shark on Spinning Gear

[PBenson]

So I spent the long weekend in Florida shark fishing with a buddy I fish for musky with here on St Clair. We got a lot of sharks. A bull, a tiger, a lemon, and a hammerhead. I split the videos into 3 episodes based on the nights they were caught. Here is the first night, where I caught a bull shark on spinning gear!

Where do you fish in Florida? We go to Florida every May and just want to know what area to stay away from, lol.

Almost all of Florida is potentially bad, especially from about Jacksonville South thru Port St. Lucie.

The Panhandle around Pensacola, etc is another. I used to surf in my high school /college days along the Panhandle. Lots of rivers and muddy/cloudy water entering. Bull sharks like that environment and dark nights.

Looks like a fun night of shark fishing.

I fish in Southwest Florida, however as skypilot said above, there are sharks at every beach. Just don't swim at sunset and don't swim too far off the beach and you should have nothing to worry about!

Heres another recent video where we catch a hammerhead!
