We’ve been having a blast chasing sharks just a couple miles off the Ocean Isle Beach coastline. Most of the action has been coming on fresh cut bait, and the sharks haven’t disappointed. Lately, we’ve been hooking into plenty of feisty sharks in the 3–6 foot range, including this 5.5-foot nurse shark pictured here. These trips are perfect for anglers looking for big fish and fast-paced fun. Shark fishing offers an exciting challenge and a chance to go head-to-head with some powerful fish — and it’s all happening close to shore, which makes it ideal for families and first-timers too. If you’re ready for a hands-on battle with a shark, now’s a great time to book. The bite has been steady and the smiles have been nonstop.
