HISTORY
The history of our club would be nothing if not for Rene de Dios the man that inspired us as youngsters in the 70’s fishing on the old South Beach pier (Miami Beach).
Rene was one of the original founders and the main force behind the idea to form the South Florida Shark Club. He was the bravest most flamboyant character to ever do battle with shark on rod and reel. Rene has left this world but lives in our hearts and our memories. His memory will live in us forever and anyone who knew him will attest to the impact he had on their lives.
-William Fundora SFSC 2007

Ramos. “Breathe” is a student produced film examining the relationship between minorities and police by Dexavior Smith.
