Local Species Insights: Bull Shark
Bull sharks thrive in Destin's warm Gulf waters, particularly around structure like artificial reefs, wrecks, and drop-offs where baitfish concentrate. These powerful predators are most active during dawn and dusk hours, though they can be caught throughout the day. Their incredible strength and stamina make them one of the most challenging gamefish to land, often requiring 30-45 minutes of intense fighting. Bull sharks are year-round residents in our waters, with peak activity during warmer months when water temperatures exceed 75 degrees.
