Left out of Galveston Jetties today with storms everywhere. Bait was plentiful and easy to catch(Pinfish, Pigfish, Whities). We were unable to locate any Bull Reds but had big sharks hooked up all day. We managed to catch sharks from 10lbs to 100lbs when we were not running from the storms that were blowing up. Here are some pictures of a couple of sharks and one of the water spout.

WOW!! Those sharks look pretty big!! What size hook were you using for those monsters? And, were you freelining or fishing the bottom?
Thanks and nice pics!!
