Surf Fishing for Brown Sharks on Cape Cod
Спорт
At the height of summer, when the stripers and blues have vacated the surf in search of cooler water, a larger, stronger, toothier predator moves within casting range of the beach.
On The Water’s Jimmy Fee joins John Malloy and shark biologist Dr. Jeff Kneebone with the goal of tagging shore-caught brown sharks on the South Side of Cape Cod. The crew hopes to learn whether this species can survive targeted catch-and-release angling.
Check out On The Water's Angling Adventures Sundays @ 10AM on NBC Sports Boston.
DISCLAIMER: Check your local regulations before heading out as many states ban catch and release fishing for Brown Sharks.

John's my cousin and a spectacular fisherman.Always a blast fishing with him.His knowledge of fishing on the Cape is unmatched,
Worked on a lobster boat in high school - we would see brown sharks occasionally & it was always cool! Saw a pair one time - like a bonus 🦈🦈
The tagging process looks lengthier and more brutal than a normal C&R, so it may give skewed results for the study of C&R if tagging kills more sharks than C&R.

Very cool - did you get the return information on the brown shark to see where it was tagged?

Thanks for watching
I'm in Massachusetts and would love to give shark fishing a shot. I could take out my 20-ft Edgewater but just for fun I'd like to give it a shot from shore. My question is what are you looking for as far as a place to fish from shore? Are you looking for a rapid drop off to deeper water or some other indication that you might be in a spot that held fish. Is there a method to the madness of shore fishing for shark?
I caught a 6ft brown last weekend close to that spot was around 120lbs great fight!!

What area is this I’m trying to find a spot
Do bait stores down in the cape sell blue fish in June or did you guys catch them fresh?

We usually catch them ourselves as there is a decent amount off the south side beaches all summer. But yes a lot of bait stores do sell them as well.
Do the tyraps stay on the fin after the tag falls off ?
How can I become a tagging biologist??
I live in there
