Starts tonight. Some segments about local waters here in the northeast. Shark Week 2022 takes a bite out of Cape Cod
Impeccable timing: Sharks spotted 100 feet from shore in NY Other than a bull shark I hooked one time in the Connecticut River, and a small sand shark my old man brought up 30 years ago when we hit a school of porgies, I have yet to see one of these Jaws-inspiring big boys (and I'm okay with that)
I'm at the northern limit for their range here in southern New England, but they're definitely plentiful here.
I never heard of that before but it fits As a kid I had a lot of fun pulling them in by the dozens. Not so much baiting the hook with sand worms though
Just how I refer to them. Even if you're catch-n-releasing, catching them are better than nothing. I have a picture of some around.
Porgies and Black Sea Bass good eating although they don't get very big, like MikeInMa said panfish of the ocean. Use to love Shark Week, but lost it's edge for me over the years. Always about the great white and it's become a celebrity contest. Some of them are entertaining but seems it's become more entertaining vs. educational, gotta make the almighty buck just my 0.02 cents. Kids still tune in once in a while or watch a re-run.
