This is 4 hour family oriented trip targeting whatever sharks are in the area. We focus on getting as many bites as possible. We drop fresh chunks of tuna, mackerel and ray to assure a fast bite. Our goal is to give everybody on the trip an opportunity to fight a shark 1 on 1. We catch many shark species depending on the season. We offer this trip in Panama City, Destin, Navarre and anywhere in-between. We can come behind where you are staying to set up. This trip is typically non-stop action when it is warm.
This trip takes place out of Jensen Beach, Florida from November- April 1st. We are following the migration of big sharks. During this time huge sharks will be moving through this area. We typcially hook around 3 fish an hour on this trip. Most clients tap out after 7 sharks or so. The average sized shark is around 10 ft. This is the best shark fishing trip the state has to offer. With 12 hours on the sand we will hook into multiple 12 ft+ hammerheads. This trip is for experienced anglers. The end of December and first weeks of Janaury are our personal favorite times.
The Sand Tiger Shark is one of our favorite shark species. It is not to be confused with the normal Tiger Shark. This shark prefers cold waters and stays to far north for us to target in Florida besides for 1 month out of the year. During this time in January thousands of them will be migrating to the southern most point of their range. This is in Jacksonvile and they congregrate very good here. We typically catch multiple per night and they are all large adult migrating fish. Small numbers of great whites and tiger sharks are also in the area but it is typically only sand tiger sharks.
