For us this was the first time we would put together a shark tournament on the internet for everyone to see and participate in.We were encouraged by seeing the First annual Shorebound Shark Tourney and it's overwhelming success onthought finally i have found a group of people dedicated to the sport of land-based shark fishing and they're like us they love this sport and are taking the time to put together a tournament.I was filled with excitement at the thought of our sport being brought to light after so many years of being on the sidelines,disrespected and might to feel like 2nd place next to the offshore fishing tournaments popular in south Florida.Without any background in computers or the internet I quickly went to work with my nephew Jorgey jr to learn how to navigate the in the internet and i also needed to learn the most basic of lessons in using a computer.With vigor i attacked the task at hand ,,,i had alot of catching up to do and i was an eager student as long as i could show the world what we had been catching since the early 1970's .So this tournament was a learning expeirience and an opportunity to put our sport and our shark club in the limelight but it's been a bumpy road at times but one that i would not change for anything.I've met many new friends and have been invigorated with a young renewed spirit to catch sharks ,,,,this is my sport ,,,my passion, i enjoy it and do it with love .I only hope that i can encourage others to seek there dreams and fish for giants from shore because it is possible.
