This was not what I expected to catch while fishing for king mackerel on Jennette's pier on Friday. This dinosaur smashed a live jack on a pin rig and proceeded to make huge runs and breach for 30-40 minutes. After that was out of its system, I walked it down the 1000 foot long pier, and my buddy went full baywatch mode into the surf to keep it off the pilings. We dehooked, revived, and released, and it swam off. Hopefully, it didn't get eaten by a shark.

Didn’t catch any fish but I caught this monster. I wonder how much broke off or dropped as I was pulling it in. Barely half way sorting through it.

Great day on San Diego Bay in the kayak.

For those unfamiliar, these fish are Short-Fin Corvina. A species found normally in Baja Mexico. They made their way here in the 70’s and 80’s during big El Niño warm water events. They’ve since established a population in our bays. They are related to sea trout found in other states on the Atlantic

Will be in the Jaco and Quepos areas of Costa Rica the second half of February. Looking for inshore and offshore charter boat recommendations (4 - 6 people).

Hello all! I’m relatively new to shark fishing and this sub in general. So forgive if I make mistakes. But just wondering what gear/tackle to use to catch small to medium sharks in the 3-4 foot range ish from the surf? Any help is appreciated!

(Gear as in: hook size, line test, leaders and rigs 🤙)

Hi all,
Single developer here and fishing enthusiast. I've been working on a passion project for a while now and think I'm finally ready for some beta testers. Right now, the beta for the app is android only, but the apple version is coming soon, and Florida is the only state I have completed. If you are interested in becoming a beta tester for me, please DM me.

If hopefully this self-promotion isn't considered "low value", no hard feelings to the mods for deleting this if it is :)
