Had a nice mid-August charter trip Saturday with a touch of early fall in the air. Using fresh and live mullet, we caught baitfish and small sharks, plus three big bull reds. We caught a 54" blactip that managed to swallow the circle hook. The Blacktip was properly cleaned and iced down for the clients. Please, if you ever harvest a shark, make sure it is gutted and bled out immediately. After about 5 minutes of bleeding out, put it in an icechest pack the shark's belly full of ice and cover it completely in ice. It makes a ton of difference in the quality when you eat it, as can be seen in their video. Shark tacos, anyone?

Afternoon trip in Galveston, were we found the sharks biting when we got there and we left them biting when we finished. Total of ten sharks were encountered.
