Caught Dinner for 4 at St.Augustine Fishing Pier❗️

Shark day at St. Augustine Pier. Sometimes when you are fishing there is a certain fish or shark that likes to feed at that time. When I start catching blue, using the same bait, I will typically catch a lot of blues. The same can be said for Bonnethead sharks. When you start catching them there is usually a school of them around. Bonnetheads typically feed on Crabs, Shrimp, and isopods (sand flees are a type of isopod). There is one Bonnethead per Angler per day. They can also grow up to 4.9 ft but I have never caught one close to that size. Pompano, Red Drum, Jack, Bluefish, and whiting are also good at this location. Red Drum and Black drum seem to be more in abundance the further south you go. That could be just perception as well.

I get questions from people on the pier about catching sharks. It is "NOT" allowed to specifically fish for shark off the pier but if you are fishing for Blue or other fish and happen to catch a shark you can keep it, if it is "LEGAL" to keep.

Thank you and have a wonderful day!
