Amazing trip to Louisiana for BIG fish

[Jim Sammons LJKF]

I got as close to a Bronze Whaler in New Zealand as I ever want.

Pretty certain this was a Dusky after looking at some of the underwater video.

That'll get your heart going. Ha Ha

They are not as thick in the Gulf as they are down there but there are some around offshore. Personally I always thought B-whalers had a longer snout, never caught one that I know of, but always heard they are hard to tell apart from a Dusky. You've got balls fishing behind shrimpers in a yak. I've fished them from skiffs and the sharks can be thick.
