Weather: 15mph northeast wind, hot and sunny
Tide: -0.12ft low at 7:45pm

My buddy Pat who is in town for a few days wanted to catch a shark so we fished the low tide in the late afternoon. The water was dirty and very low so the sharks weren't out in full force but he still managed to pull in a lemon and blacktip on cut jack. The sun started to reach the horizon so we paddled back and stopped by a few spots for tailers. I think we only saw 3 and ended up catching 2 of them at 27" and 34". We stalked the big one, which was on the back of a stingray, for 10 minutes before she finally ate. There was an epic light display from the phosphorus in the water that was ignited by any small movement on the paddle in..you had to be there to really appreciate it, it was truly awesome.
