Atlantic Sharpnose Shark
Destin, with its access to the Gulf of Mexico, presents a unique opportunity to tangle with Atlantic Sharpnose Sharks. While not as prevalent as other shark species, these sharks can be found in the bays and nearshore waters, especially during the warmer months of the year. Consider targeting them in Choctawhatchee Bay, particularly around the deeper channels and grass flats. Spring and summer are ideal, as the sharks are more active and closer to shore. A good access point is the boat ramp at the Destin Harbor Boardwalk. When fishing, use live or cut bait and be prepared for a strong fight. Local knowledge suggests that fishing near dawn or dusk can be particularly productive. Also, be mindful of the strong tides that can occur in the bay.
