Our First Big Hammer- 11 foot 2 inch(FEB 2011)

keysharker · 2011-02-27T13:39:40Z

Went out last night with the couple members of the bullbuster team (myself, zack and steven). We hit up key biscayne, our favorite spot that always seems to provide. We were able to get a dingy out to the beach which made taking the baits out super easy. one 16/0, two 14/0, one 12/0 and a 9/0. We were ready to start the year off right. All baits in the water at 1010 all we had to do was wait. 12 o'clock came around and we finally get a hit but it was on the 9/0, our smaller real with our smalles bait. At first thought i figured a little lemon that picked up our 9inch baby bonita. Man was i WRONG. this monster took us up and down the beach and nearly spooled us, we must have had about 50 yards left on the reel before Zack, the angler of the hour, finally got some line back. 45 minutes later we saw our first glimpse of our first hammer, 11ft 2, that distinctive large dorsal fin appeared. after a couple minutes of trying to get the beast to the shore we were finally able to measure, cut the leader, take a couple pics on soem friends iphones and release the shark. Biggest so far for bullbuster but we dont plan on stopping. zack with his first and biggest hammer
