Fished from 1pm until about midnight. Slow at first, small pompano and whiting were being caught. Mike and Amy showed up shortly after I got there and we managed to get a good spot on the rail. Went to use the bathroom and came back to find Mike hooked up on the first shark, on my heaver no less. Ended up having to beach it since there was no gaff or net. Hence was born the "Tybee Toss", where you take a medium sized shark and toss it 20 feet into the air, onto the pier.
Then around dusk, a blitz came through, mostly BIG spanish and some blues. Gulls everywhere and the fish were hungry. As soon as I got the spanish jigging technique down, I caught 3 in 5 minutes before they managed to tear the rig to shreds and darkness fell. Biggest spanish I had was about 18". So now I need recipes for shark and spanish. Anyone know how to prepare spanish?
