Shark fishing

[Zed]

Ive caught threshers in every month. Follow the baitballs and IMO a little greener water on the slack tides they are the most active.

And some say they immediately follow the broomhandle cuda which never left the kelp around DP.

But they were mighty big when they jumped out of the water 25 feet in front of you.

That seems interesting. Guys I'm really excited about targeting them can you guys help with some tips on how to fish them and where off of Dana point or Malibu or whatever?
