hello my name is Blaine Darter im 17 years old i do lots of shark fishing out of texas have been pretty succesfull i already have my 3 trips planned for florida and wanted to get all the pointers and information i would need to go after the stud sharks for my young age ive been doing this for 9 years i got into it because my dad owned a beach house along the gulf by a public fishing pier he is a big time trout fisherman and thats what i did until starting to go down there to that pier where it changed me after a few months of fishing down there no more trout for me a purchased my first 9/0 when i was 8 and a few months later i got a 12/0 and just fell in love with this sport/hobby thats about it with me
Welcome to the club, i'm also 17 and have a 9/0 and 12/0 
Just an average fisherman.
Welcome the the site, Blaine! We'd love to see some of the pictures of your shark catches. 
Well your certainly in good company here.
Some of those clubs in TX have put a BAD
taste in my mouth as far as the way there
operated. Everyone here has a opinion and
nobody considers themselves to be the
all knowing shark expert that you could
only dream of being. Anyways Welcome.....
Slay-em, SharkSLaya.
