Agreed!
Josh is awesome, I got my first real shark and joined this great site due to his advice.
Quick Story:
I got into shark fishing while looking at you tube videos of cool fresh water fish for aquariums. (in Nov. 2011) Saw a video of a shark tank > saw a video of sharks in a pool > saw a video of Blacktip Hunter landing a big hammer off the beach > saw all the other BlacktipH videos. I was hooked! I knew what I wanted to do with my spare time from now on.
I messaged him via youtube a dozen times back n forth and he said "Dude, give me a call, this is much easier for your questions." He gave me some tips and I hit up craigslist for some gear. All my friends said I was nuts and gave me a sarcastic "good luck."
I watched the videos over n over. Learned about tides, winds, and seaweed via our youtube messages and this forum.
One day this cool guy from GA saw my 14/0 in the sand spike while he was surf casting and we struck up a conversation and he was hooked on the idea of sharkin. Complete stranger then but now he's one of my best buds. We fish all the time. He got a shrk rod and a 9/0, then landed his first big shark (Huge gummy, maybe over 8'). It was not the bull he was after but it was fun either way.
I am super excited for the BTC and the chance to meet Josh and shake his hand along with all the other members. (Met the LWP crew coincidentally)
In the end, I spent some cash on gear and time on the sand improving my sharkin skills. Skipping the bars on weekends and a snowboard trip for the BTC......all because I was looking at aquariums on youtube LOL.
