My son Marco loves to fish. Being down the shore he became obsessed with catching a shark. A local tackle shop (LBI) said there were a lot of sharks being caught in the bay. We fished off a friends dock, chummed the water ( as my son requested!) and fished. Within 15 minutes, shark on! He reeled it in all by himself (6 year old). It was funny every time the shark would take the drag out, he was yelling " dad, he's running!" In the next 2 hours after sunset, we ended up landing 6 sharks (not sure what kind but they had teeth!, 2 sand sharks, and a sting ray. Very exciting moment for me to see the excitement on his face with his first shark!

good job to you and your son. They were probably browns. If the surf warms they will hit the ocean front.
