Why aren't sharks an option for target species? I'm pretty sure I was targeting them today! ;)

My buddy ran a combination of different lures, spoons, kingfishers, and hootchies. I stuck to just one thing:

Brined herring with an amazing cut plug job (if I do say so myself) learned the toothpick trick, pulled incredible action out of it. ran behind a white UV / reflective flasher.

worked Owens, Slag, Dash, Girlscout, and the pt across from it.
started way way way early (slept on the boat last night). ended around 5pm.

set a new record, boated 9 sharks. no salmon harmed in the making of this day.

oh absolutely, I cut off my leader every single time I catch a shark. I have heard that their scent can repel salmon, I dont know if thats true or not, but I have seen how their teeth and fins can braze a line, and how they twist in it they just cause problems. so with every shark caught, a leader is lost. lol
