Fish Caught: One Blue Shark

Headed out for the first shark trip of the season - on the way out in 140 feet of water we found huge packs of dog fish sunning themselves on the surface.

We pushed on to 180 foot of water and fished 17 miles south of Montauk in 55.5 degree water.

The water looked fantastic, and with nice conditions we put the lines out.

It wasnt too long before we were completely covered up in dog fish!

The dog fish made the day nearly unfishable, but still a fun time!

We managed one small blueshark before we thru the towel in at 2:00pm!
