Tiger Shark
Targeting tiger sharks in the waters off San Diego presents a unique angling experience. While not as prolific as in some other regions, these impressive predators can be found, particularly during the warmer months of the year, typically from July through October. Focus your efforts around areas with structure, such as the La Jolla Canyon or Coronado Islands. These areas tend to hold baitfish, which attract larger predators like tiger sharks. A popular tactic is to drift fish with large chunks of oily fish, like mackerel or tuna, as bait. Chumming can also be effective. Be sure to use heavy tackle and wire leaders, as tiger sharks have powerful jaws. If you're fishing from a boat, several launch ramps provide access to the Pacific. Alternatively, some anglers have had success fishing from piers, but be mindful of regulations and other anglers. Always practice responsible shark fishing, and prioritize the safe release of these incredible animals.
