Thread: Sharked in November?

do the sharks leave when the colder water comes in late fall? or when i come down there will i always hafta be worried about them getting my fish...im not gonna lie if this happens to me im going in with a snorkeling mask and a sharp sharp gig pole...its war!!! technically not fishing right... therefore legal? just play symantics with the law like our government does and id probably be fine. also im guessing the kings are gone by then if the weather gets cooler?

Sharks are around all year. Kings have been caught as late as Thanksgiving but are more likely to be done before then for all practical purposes.

i figured they are resident sharks but are they still so active at stealing your catch all year round i guess is the right question.

Couple winters ago - no. But couple summers ago there were not the numbers there were last year and this. Didn't get to fish much this past winter, so can't say for sure. Truth is, no one will know for sure until winter gets here. Not what you wanted to hear but, just like any other season, you can make guesses, but that's about it.

ok thats true, wont know til then, all these horror stories of getting sharked is getting me worried. I had this happen once to me and i cant stand that dirty little trick, mother nature can be a real B sometimes.

You hit the nail on the head. It's her house, her game, her cards. You pays your money and you takes your chances.

On the other hand, there is plenty of fishing in the shallows that time of year that doesn't involve sharks.

thanks kinda my strategy, hope for whiting in the shallows cuz ill be there. my wife loves to cook them whole
