would yall do this at night, do you think it would be safe if your carful, if not what time would you paddle the bait out their a ways, when your gunna pull an all nighter?

also im looking into getting a penn special senator 114h 6/0 reel for this, what size rod would you recommend for this reel and type of beach shark fishing?

I have some friends that yak at night, they alway have someone on shore to guide them in. I didn't do it when I had a yak, too many rays in shallow. I traded in my yak on the boat below..

I have a couple of 6/0 with rods for sale. I need to clean them up, $80 for one or $130 for both. I'm in SA.

I am very interested in both if you cleaned them up, how are their cpndition?,
and would you be willing to trade one for a johnny morris signature bait cast reel, 7 : 1, with 20 pound super braid on it?, if not ill pay for them with cash, and where do you live in san antonio

One is in great condition, the other has a bent prong on the star drag and sometimes it sticks.

Here is a pic of the one with the bent prong. I decided to sell them both since I haven't been to the beach in about a year.

Here is a comprehensive shark fishing tackle article with everything from surf casting gear to the big reels like the Penn 16/0: SHARK FISHING TACKLE

Thanks Power Fisherman for that extremely informative link.

Good stuff that I'll apply next time I hit the beach.

The virus is spreading...

If you are going to do that at night as I have done but not shark fishing have a buddy or 2 that are on shore wear one of the head lamps with the red light, it also has LED lights on it so you will always know the direction to go to get back in the spot you put in.

I guess it is your here now

Here is a video with a 9 foot shark being landed on a 6/0 with a short stand up rod. This is why we recommend something short.
