Tony,
Early days of shark fishing for me out of Shinnecock Inlet 25-30 miles offshore, we'd catch, tag and release alot of sharks, many were blue shark. They are the most lethargic non fighting fish. They pretty much couldn't care less. We'd release them only to catch them again. Mako, Tigers, White, Hammerhead, different story. Caught numerous Mako's trolling for Tuna. Mako on, party on. Better be on your game. Mako's can be pretty sporty and unpredictable.
Fun old times. Mr. Blue Marlin hanging on my wall had a birthday Aug 4. He's now 34.
