Captain Shannon put together a fantastic fishing trip for our honeymoon. My husband and I had a goal for the day: catch one shark. Little did we know weโd end up catching over a dozen!
The day started off a little drizzly, but Captain Shannon hopped the boat around the bay to avoid the clouds. The shrimp boats werenโt dragging so he put out a chum bag to draw the sharks to us. It wasnโt long before they started biting. We didnโt sit idle more than 10-15 minutes at a time before another bite. The largest shark we caught is in the attached picture, probably around 3.5โ. We attempted to reel in a few larger than that, but they were too powerful and able to snap the line. Thatโs just the way the cookie crumbles sometimes, and we have no regrets. It was an outstanding trip and we wonโt book with anyone but Captain Shannon in the future!
Note: My 6โ 4โ husband was winded reeling in all these sharksโฆ it takes work! I wasnโt much help being pregnant and so easily winded, but Captain Shannon was helpful and set the reels to โgranny gearโ to give me more torque so I could accomplish something!
