Hi everyone,

I am fairly new to shark fishing but I am headed to Bonita Springs Dec 12-24th. I am looking to catch sharks in the 4-7 foot range. I have a Penn Battle 2 8000 reel with 350 yards of 65lb braid on a 12 ft surf casting rod with a 7 foot leader and 16/0 circle hook. I plan on fishing Bonita Beach, Sanibel Island, and Wiggins Pass. I know it's better at night but I plan on fishing only in the day. I have a few questions.

1. What are the best beaches in this area?
2. How tough is it to catch sharks in the day vs night?
3. There are a lot of Dolphins I always see at Bonita Beach, will they be a problem?
4. I am trailering my 13 foot boston whaler, any good shark reefs not too far out in the gulf?

Any other info is appreciated as well, thanks in advance. :)
