I haven't been doing much (or any) land based shark fishing this summer, but I have added a few smaller shark species to my lifelist.
Atlantic sharpnose - bycatch while bottom fishing for red snapper. First one was cool, next 20 were not.

Spinner - trolling an X-rap 10 along the edge of a 15 ft reef where it drops down to 25 ft sand bottom.

Spiny dogfish - party boat in New Hampshire. My first time fishing the Atlantic north of North Carolina.

Also saw this guy while snorkeling. I kept my distance! ;D

The mullet run is in full swing over here right now. I need to get out and try for bull sharks again. :D
Well damn Ben! Loving seeing those East Coast critters and it doesn't matter if they are shore caught. I have tabs for every type of fishing on here and we'd love to see all the cool stuff you're catching. 8)
Looks like a lake in NH. I've also been digging the east coast updates and reports would be cool.
As always, thanks for sharing Ben. Enjoy the pics and the reports
