On today’s charter we first went to Redfish Pass to go Shark fishing. We had two big Black Tips take the bait, but they broke the line before we could get them near the boat, but hey that’s fishing!

On todays charter we went shark fishing in Redfish Pass.

We had to wait about 30 minutes before we got a bite. The shark fought for about ten minutes. Once we got him near the boat I attached a rope to his tail and lifted him into the boat.

We then snapped a few photos before we removed the hook and let him go no worse for wear.

Captiva Fishing: Shark Bites Hank!

Hank, After Shark Bite On Nose, Sanibel & Captiva Islands & Fort Myers Charters & Fishing Guide Service.
Hank, After Shark Bite On Nose, Sanibel & Captiva Islands & Fort Myers Charters & Fishing Guide Service.

A teenager appears to have been bitten by some type of fish today off Casa Ybel, maybe a baby shark or maybe something else.

Teenager hospitalized with minor injuries after something bites him

Evidently, the injuries are not too serious but he did need hospitalization.

Any kind of shark attack or bite is very rare on Sanibel and Captiva, but you need to be careful and thoughtful if you are fishing with cut bait from the beach.

Stay away from swimmers … even better, fish early in the morning or the evening when folks aren’t swimming.

On a lighter note, Hank has encountered a small shark or two on the boat and gotten a “bit” too close … his own personal version of Sharknado .

We need to do a better job of keeping Hank away from small sharks when we land them on the boat … and we will.

Safety first!
