Hey Josh, in general, how is Florida surf fishing in December? Would you recommend the gulf over the east coast? What species are targeted that time of year? Thanks.

BlacktipH - 9 years ago

The east coast is very good. There are a lot of migratory species that moving along the coast in December.

Those are spinners not blacktips

BlacktipH - 9 years ago

+ApolloAPX Gaming Nope, they are blacktips. Refer to 0:34 and you will see the dorsal fin is too tall and broad to be a spinner.

+Schyler Silvey They don't taste good so there's really no point in keeping them.

Schyler Silvey - 9 years ago

+BlacktipH Okay cool. Dolphin sounds good. Also, did you keep any of the Sharks? Or is that illegal? I live in Missouri lol

BlacktipH - 9 years ago

+Schyler Silvey I keep edible fish like dolphin, wahoo, snapper, etc...

Ethan Palki - 9 years ago

You should have actually caught one.

618 Fishing - 9 years ago

wow! that was incredible! I had no idea blacktips exploded out of the water like that and some so close to shore! That was some incredible footage and I see why it took 2 months to accumulate it all. Once again I was thoroughly entertained. thanks guys!

Geoffrey Polefko - 9 years ago

I have a Daiwa saltist 40bgh spooled with 600 yards of 50lbs braid and my buddy makes custom 3 ft of 160 lbs mono attached to 2 ft of 200 lbs steel with a 7/0 to a 12/0 circle. And he's got a spinfisher 9500 with 500 yards of 80 lbs braid. What's the biggest fish you think we could land with the reels? And you think it would be worth it for me go get 500 yards of 65 lbs braid next time of 500 yards of 50lbs with a 60lbs top shot?

BlacktipH - 9 years ago

+Geoffrey Polefko Both the saltist and spinfisher.

Geoffrey Polefko - 9 years ago

+BlacktipH with which reel?

BlacktipH - 9 years ago

+Geoffrey Polefko You should be able to catch a 200lb shark with that setup.

Geoffrey Polefko - 9 years ago

My friend caught about a 200 -250 lbs stingray on his shimano tekota with 400 yards of 50lbs braid last weekend.

Rob Kamen - 9 years ago

Jeremy Moody - 9 years ago

Did you actually connect on any of these? I feel like I just watched 100 missed bites. Doesn't seem very effective as a form of fishing for the sharks. Please educate me if I'm wrong.

BlacktipH - 9 years ago

We removed the hooks. Our next video will show us catching blacktips with lures.

Salt Strong - 9 years ago

Amazing shark footage once again Josh. I bet most people have no idea how long this took you to get that much footage of that many blacktips hitting those lures. Well done. In fact, this was probably one of our favorites yet. And we just posted it as our featured video on the home page. Check it out: http://www.saltstrong.com/sharks-attack-topwater-lures/

Chunky Father - 9 years ago

Love this action packed channel. Btw what beach is this in Florida ??

Matthew Herzog - 9 years ago

I can clearly see that some of those lures bend. What lures are they?

Matthew Herzog - 9 years ago

Oh, I got confused. There are live baitfish jumping, too.

+Matthew Herzog We used many different brands: Tactical Anglers, Sebile, Shimano, Live Target, Rapala, Northbar, Gibbs, Offshore Angler, and others.

steven clifford - 9 years ago

Where and what time of year can you take advantage of that action. I am from Ontario, Canada I would love to take a vacation for some tarpon, Goliath, and shark. Also do you guide?

+steven clifford This was during the month of February and March in Florida on the Atlantic Coast. We are in the process of creating a guiding service.

Nick Anderson - 9 years ago

Bit Duck sharks not every species of shark is endangered, although some have been extirpated in a lot of areas in the world. But nonetheless a school of Blacktips is pretty exciting to see.

Andrew Moroder - 9 years ago

While watching the video (and thinking back to most of the fishing videos I have watched) I thought to myself at least when I read the comments people won't have anything to bi*** about because no one is "hurting" the fish/sharks.I thought well everyone kind of gets their way, the fishermen get the rush of the action and the animal advocates aren't having to watch the sharks hooked and dragged in. HOWEVER, I amazingly was wrong because now it is mean to trick the sharks and make them exert energy for what they thought was a meal. I know it's my fault for assuming and no one is making me read the comments but I really thought this was a win/win for everyone...Silly me.

Very cool vid Josh, like most of your others. My son and I are both shark lovers and conservationists. We do not target them because we only want to catch them for scientific purposes. I know you tag them for that reason. How can my son and I get involved with that so we can start to help out?
