Palm Beach Blacktip Invasion II
Went to the Jack monster hole and lost a 40lb jack while I was bringing him up the sea wall. I was using hand line 400lb test snell knot and a huge circle hook.



After failing on getting a jack for bait, I was getting doubt on getting bait in time.
So I went to another spot and had to jump in and get a bonito,runner & kingfish remains. So, now I had bait and could get more sharks.
I put the runner out in two pieces and my wife gets a solid hit and she on in under 10min after we get there.
The hook was pulled straight and she lost the shark in the surf.
She had to go, so I was there with JD Fegan & JD hammer.
JD Fegan had fresh bluefish so I cut a small piece and casted out.
The current was ripping hard due North all day today.
I got a hit in under 5 mins.




Then JD Hammer hooks up!


Oh no, He lost him...
But wait now the other JD is on!!!



Then my 950SSm goes screaming!


I like this rod and reel combo alot for tippers ![]()




Then we had some crazy weather show up ![]()

But it didn't stop us at first...




Oh man this weather was looking crazy...


It got so bad JD Hammer had to Duck & Cover
![]()

I told everyone get ready, we might see a water spout.


Sure enough JD Hammer spotted one out N/E of us.


After that is was beautiful out here ![]()


No pots of gold just tippers ![]()

Then JD Hammer hooks into the Big Dawg!!!


Oh man, this Shark was buring JD. But JD made this shark fight for every inch of line he was trying to get.



I was trying to get the perfect rod bend picture!!!

This shark took both of us almost 1 mile south along the beach.
Watch out guys JD Hammer is back in his prime ![]()

Oh no, the big dawg was a foul hooked tipper throwing a tipper tantrum ![]()

So we walk back and JD Fegan gets blasted right when we walk up! ![]()
Oh Yeah JD Fegan is on, this shark jumped over 10 times after hook set.
I got some video of it also.




I think this is the video here.
When I have some free time I'll clean up my typos and videos.
I'm so worn down I taking a break untill sat have a good week guys and gals ![]()

Oh JD Fegan and Jonathanbryan are still fishing the spot.
The might post a monster tonight!!!
Jimmy,
I would not recommend to continue filming blacktips being released underwater. I tried this and had one turn on me. If he grabs you, he will not let go. It's not worth it. They are too unpredictable.

Thats when I will harvest my first blacktip. ![]()
Thanks for the heads up though Josh.
I will pay close attention when I'm filming.
I took alot of videos because it was kinda calm and the water was very clear.
In the video you can see the one JD Fegan lets go of kinda come at me. ![]()
