Tiger Shark
Targeting Tiger Sharks off the coast of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is a thrilling experience for any angler seeking a true apex predator. The warm waters of the Gulf Stream flow close to shore here, creating an ideal habitat for these magnificent creatures. While Tiger Sharks can be caught year-round, the warmer months, from spring through fall, are generally considered the best. Focus your efforts on areas with deep water access and strong currents, such as near the edge of the Gulf Stream or around offshore wrecks and reefs. Chumming is essential to attract sharks from a distance. Use large, oily fish like mackerel or bonita. When targeting Tiger Sharks, always use heavy tackle and wire leaders. A strong fighting chair is also highly recommended. Be prepared for a long and challenging fight! Remember to practice responsible shark fishing techniques, including using circle hooks and minimizing fight time to ensure the shark's survival upon release.
