Details coming tomorrow, but the biggest surf shark in SoCal for surf casting will result in a prize. Shirt or better...
Keep tuned! Members only competition!

Hopefully Paddy doesn't land the winner the first day of April like he did in November.

Right on, I've been waiting for another monthly contest!
Not sure how much I'll get out with the new baby, but I'll give it a shot.
Can't wait to catch my first real shark!

Give it up guys. Already have it won, just need to reel it in.

Doesn't matter though. The shirt won't fit me.

Is it going to go by straight length? An 81" seven will beat out an 80" soupie...hmmm.

A win by Member Vote....  I'll put a poll up and the winner will be crowned by their peers.

OK, it's been tough going this month and Ive been working way too much lately, but I just put together a quick pack for the April Shark winner.

I didn't crimp them, but instead pre-cut everything to give you the opportunity to make your own rigs.



Includes:

(5) 10/0 live bait hooks.
(5) 28" sections of 135# 7 strand SS wire
(5) 28" sections of 80# mono leader for sinkers
(5) 105# smooth turn 3-way swivels
(5) pieces of pre-cut shrink tube for hook eyes
(10) brass crimps for the wre leader.  2 per rig.
