TiPPer inVasion + 7' 8" bull, Palm Beach Report Dec 7,8-2012
Stopped by the Corner Store to grab my 39lb Jack.
I have to thank Robert for letting me keep it there.
They caught some Rass I forgot the name of this fish but they had about 5 of them.
Went to the Inlet around 4pm.
Calm surf big clouds low wind.
I brought the 16 0 and the beast Jack.
What a long walk that was
So I look over the area from the trail.
I see 3 people out there with shark rods. Who could it be?
Oh , It's JD Hammer, Slasherx4, & JPSSHARK.
So we start cutting the jack up and....
JD Hammers 16 0 goes off...
He does the running man and he's on!
JD and the guys walk down the beach with tape line, cameras & cutters.
I stay with the gear and Marks 12 0 thats still out.
The guys were tired from sharking all day so they let Mark fight the beast for a bit.
JD Gets it in what is it...
Big Palm Beach Bull 7ft 8inch
Mark 12 0 goes off with a fast run....
Sounds like a tipper...
So I do the running man set hook the shark takes drag
and I shove the rod in the sand and the fight was on for about 5 min.
Then the hooks pull...
So we put out the monster jack in 2 pieces on the 16 0's
My 16 0 goes off right after I dropped the bait out...
Small runs then drops...
So I shove the rod in the sand then it starts rolling good....
Mark wanted to do a Dual Running man to make sure the hook sets
We ran so far and set over 10 times then drag starts to get rolling.
Then it goes slack.... Mark charges the beach with my 16 0...
The bait was dropped...
Then the same thing happens to JDHammer!
We used that 40lbs of jack up in 30 min or less
Then I took marks cuda out...
He was hooked up before I paddled back in
Mark lands a 5ft 8inch Black Tip.
Have a good weekend guys!
Oh, here are the pictures from Morning
I think JD Hammer is starting to like this spot
Oh,
The Birds made a math equation ^look up JD Hammer is Greater than you!
Have a good week everyone
Thank You Guys ( J.D.Hammer, Slasherx4, & Jimmylevelwind )A.K.A= Jimbo, Mark, & Jimmy!!!! It Was A Sharkin Dream Really Fun And Full Of Action,...We Didnt Even Get To Sit Down The Whole Trip...Really A Old School Feeling Out There With The Giant Jacks & Baracudas, BIG GUN REELS,...Just Totally A Insane Trip And The Sharks Were There Hitting Everything
Who Can Ask For Anything More
Just to add, some pics that were lost but not forgotten...
The best McDonald's
a tiger lost in the surf
bait
Big 45ft boat went down.
bull on
getting back from tipper hell
Something about inlets tend to make boats flip and sink... saw a nice fishing boat flip in Sebastian because the guy put the anchor in the back of the boat in rough waves and current.

One day at that shark infested hell hole is all I could take, great trip, we missed many sharks, but at least we got what we did, great report, we will try it again when I'm not as sore
Just an average fisherman.

Thanks guys for another OUTSTANDING picture full report.Those pictures put me right at the scene, and I can smell the ocean, feel the warm breeze and slightly chilly water just by the pics you guys shared.
