Title: Off the wall shark question
Post by: Still Running on July 22, 2008, 01:51:10 PM

Has anyone tried eating any other sharks other than Mako?
I have heard people eat Blue, just wondering.

My Sharking experience is currently very limited.. But when I lived down there, my buddy and I used to fish the backs of Great and Barny bays for Brown (Sandbar) Sharks.. Often getting a few up to about 4'.. We would clean and bleed them and quickly get them on ice..They where very tasty.
