Lots of Sharks

Went to Panacea, Fl and the shark bite was on like donkey kong, Caught 7 sharks, Black tips and sand sharks. All were around 36 to 40 inches. Caught on live finger mullet that I caught with a cast net.

Shark
 
My boys would love to catch a shark- the big crappie, stripe and catfish are boring them...

Hey bro...I've heard you mention this place before. The wife and I were looking into taking a trip there maybe later in the year and possibly taking the boat as well. A 21' center console. would you recomend it? and and info on good place to stay with dock or fishing places would be a great bonus!!
Thanks
James

Yes it is Panacea, Fl. there is a boat ramp next to the beach and the fishing pier, look for Mashes sands beach. There are no hotels near the water. We stayed at the BestWestern in Crawfordville on Coastal Hwy. The hotel is about 12 miles from Mashes Sands. Lots of other boat launches also but Mashes Sands is free.

That would be incorrect, it is a sand shark! You cannot see them in the pic but he does have the grayish spots.

Well you can call it what you want, TNjugger - some people call rock bass "redeye," after all, even though the true redeye is a completely different fish.

But that's a sharpnose. Maybe some people call them sand sharks as a regional name, but the actual sand shark (aka sand tiger) is an entirely different fish.

Sand shark (Carcharias taurus):

Note the large rear dorsal fin, which the shark in your picture does not have.

Atlantic sharpnose (Rhizoprionodon terraenovae):

Oh, note the gray spots.

As a general rule, I usually know my fish.

But hey I am so glad that you caught my mistake and I am so impressed that you as a general rule know your fish. I mean really what would us novices do with out you? LOL!
