FG knot is by far the best for tying anything over 60 pound mono to braid. 60 and under you can get away with a double uni knot but it’s bulkier and a little weaker compared to FG.
In 3 weeks planning on doing a week of shore based shark fishing near Boca/ surrounding areas (With other rigs for dinner). Figured rather than spend my fishing money in one day for offshore again, I'd buy my own gear and try this.
What size penn senator do you recommend and is there any maintenance on them or is it just wash them off after fishing and all I have right now is a 6500 reel with 50 lb and an 11ft surf rod should this be fine
@@nottgav that spinning reel should be ok for 4-6ft sharks. Mines a 6/0 senator spooled with 400yds of 60lb mono. I don’t do any maintenance on it. Just rinse it. It works good for 6-7ft but if you want bigger sharks I’d go with a 9/0 senator
I'm looking to buy a property in Florida. I took a trip there recently and it's the most beautiful place I've ever been. The people are friendly. The fishing is great. The land is beautiful. I want to retire three. I don't want to die in this god awful state I live in.
@@clixanimations5644 ideally just before so it’s fresh. Either with a castnet for the mullet, or the rest of the stuff is caught on a pompano rig with shrimp/sandflea at the beach
This is an older video. Now I’d recommend one of the 12ft heavy Penn surf rods. Either the Squadron, Prevail, or Battalion depending on your budget. They work good. 12ft uglystick works good too.
Try walking into the water before you cast to get extra distance. Also you can get extra casting distance by shortening the amount of distance between your bait and hook in your rig. And finally just practice. I don’t know where you live so I can’t speak for a specific distance number, however there are sharks very close to shore in most places.
@@satellitefishing thx for the quick response. I’m talking about beach around Galveston TX. I’ll try to shorten my leader and hopefully i can hand something next time🫡
@@mikeshen7498 I think time of day makes a bigger difference. I’ve had best luck in the morning or just before sunset. I seem to get the least bites after dark. As far as tide, I’d just try to get out there and fish all the tides. In my experience the sharks don’t seem to care too much and will eat at any time/tide tho. One other tip (I can’t remeber if I even said in the video) but fresh bait is by far the best. Especially if you can use small fish you just caught off the beach as bait.
That’s a great reel. As for rods, In my experience most 10-12ft heavy rods should work good. I like the ugly stik, and Penn prevail surf rods. I used to have one of the 12ft Ande tournament surf rods, but it broke fighting a shark. Those are a little cheaper than the uglystiks and prevail
Ah I didn’t know you didn’t need to cast at all. Yeah, the 9ft version of those surf rods I listed will be way to light for shark fishing. What’s your budget? I know tsunami makes an XH 8’ Carbon Shield rod. Even that, I just don’t now if a 8500 sized reel would really fit. My brother has one and it pairs well with his 6500 slammmer.
@@satellitefishing I don’t know if you know this brand but Vexan makes a 8ft6 xtra xtra heavy rod. I can’t find any reviews on it do you have a opinion about it?
I’m 15 and I’ve always wanted to catch a shark off the beach. I think this video is gonna help me a ton now. Thank you for the tips!
Casting set ups are the most fun in my opinion. Paddling out is Also fun but it’s more work and more dangerous depending on the conditions.
Yes.

Bro, awesome tutorial! Thanks for doing this one, any other line to leader options that are reliable outside the knot you suggested)

Love the rock trick going to use that❤👍👍
Definitely helpful if there’s strong current
Good trick with the rock
I would use braid to not leave much plastic behind me
Thanks, and 99% of the time, the rock just slices the line but the knot stays attached at the swivel so I get all the mono back.
Ppppfffftttttt Braid 🤣😂🤬

I have one question how do you catch the bait and when
@@clixanimations5644 ideally just before so it’s fresh. Either with a castnet for the mullet, or the rest of the stuff is caught on a pompano rig with shrimp/sandflea at the beach
what exact rod do you use for casting setup
This is an older video. Now I’d recommend one of the 12ft heavy Penn surf rods. Either the Squadron, Prevail, or Battalion depending on your budget. They work good. 12ft uglystick works good too.
what size hook should i use
I have another video where I talk about hooks and other tackle in depth, but generally 10/0-13/0 is good for these size sharks
🔥🔥🔥
Nice video man !
How far should I cast? feel like even with my 12 foot rod, i still can’t cast over the second sand bar😢do I have to get a kayak?

@@satellitefishing btw, does tide matters in terms of catching sharks? Say major tide, high tide?
