Bravo Boss!  You guys got a real sharky beach up there.  Nicely done Eric. 

I'm probably going to add a Shark List to Prehistoric Soul to show which member's have caught surf sharks and what sizes they have been.  It will also be a way to collect data that we could use to help fine tune our craft.
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

Joo guys are making me jealous. I'm glad I can see my friends, by friends catching them. Way to go, and I know soloing a 7 can be a nerve wracking experience. As the famous Team America line goes "You have balls, I like balls."

I enjoy it, tailing them is the most exciting part for me.

Best of luck with your incident mentioned above, been there....

Thanks man, and yes the most satisfying part of this type of fishing is getting your hands on it. Also during the drag they can't really bend as far as they can stationary, so it's mostly fear in your head.
