Oh yeah, in the middle of summer that area is FULL of sharks! If you want a real challenge bring a heavier outfit, get a big circle hook, steel cable for a leader and heavy weight. Cut up a lady fish in nice chunks and wade out as far as you can and wing it (kind of eery wading when you are shark fishing!! haha). Best times are at dawn and dusk for this and you WILL get a shark. My family has a boat down there and its amazing how many sharks we see just yards of the beach, big ones too!
My biggest fish was a 7ft nurse shark caught in three feet of water about an hr east of Panama City in Cape San Blas. I had only 15lb line and it took me nearly three hours to get her in!
If you are lucky, the spinner sharks will be in the area. These look very very similiar to black tips but when hooked they take to the air. Im talking jump after jump after jump! Nothing will get your heart pump like a 5ft shark tail walking across the surf as your running down the beach to keep up with him!
Just please dont fish for sharks around people!
