spinner

Mon, 2010-11-01 20:45

Looks a lot like a spinner shark to me.  Be very suprised about a mako out of K-town, could be wrong though.

Makos

Mon, 2010-11-01 20:59

Have caught them as far north as about 80nm NE of Bebout island Ads. Couldnt get a good look at it to pick it.

Used to get heaps of thickskins and big tigers right through the ships anchoring area before they closed it down. From Marc's shot liiks like it should be reopened though the regs have changed to prevent the big tigers being targetted.

waiting

Mon, 2010-11-01 21:02

I was actually waiting for you to correct me on how far north you catch them. :)  Having paused the vid I think that its a spinner, but its hard to see.  Mako sounds much better though.

Cheers guys yeah i never thought of a spinner but as we were untangling a lure off the line i was hooked up to the mack on, i seen the shark up close. Looked very much like a mako, very pointy head and real blue . Not too sure what a spinner looks like

Marc the one I hooked up here

briefly did look like a Mako IMO. But it is subtly more gray than blue, and the nose is not pointed, but more like a whalers, and the body is thick set cf a Mako.

But the leap out of the water mine did twice before the line parted was very mako like (not that I have caught one, but seen heaps of vids). It was awesome to see, and after the line broke (caught as a by catch bottom bouncing on a 40lb fluoro leader and 30lb braid) the angry son of a gun free jumped another time next to the boat to say hello. The 4 off us onboard was dumb struck.
