What you’ll do

  • Run out to the shark grounds your captain picks for the day
  • Set a spread of baits and let the slick work
  • Battle hard-pulling sharks with your captain beside you
  • Six hours of hunting, then home with the photos to prove it

Typical catch: Bull shark, Blacktip shark, Spinner shark, Atlantic sharpnose shark, Hammerhead shark (depending on season)

Good for: Serious thrill seekers, Anglers chasing a big shark, Groups who want a bigger boat, Return shark anglers

This is the shark trip with the gloves off. Six hours gives your captain time to cover more water, set more baits and wait out the big ones.

Depending on season, the cast list includes bull sharks, blacktips, spinners, sharpnose and the occasional hammerhead. When a big one eats, the whole boat feels it.

Run it on a 26-footer for a lean, fast-moving hunt, or step up to Instagator or Wave Dancer 2 for a bigger platform when the fight goes long.

Questions

Shark Fishing is four hours on a 26-foot boat. The Shark Hunt adds two more hours and opens up all four boats, including Instagator and Wave Dancer 2.

The 26-footers keep it quick and affordable and include 3 guests, with extra guests $100 each. Instagator and Wave Dancer 2 include up to 6 guests and give you a bigger boat for a bigger day.
