Prehistoric Soul - 2020
This has been an unprecedented year in the world and has slowed to halted many shark fishing activities during the peak times. Prehistoric Soul will be here when you need us. Read through some old posts and browse some categories. We also welcome you to write any articles that you may feel important to be here on the site. Soon enough, the sharks will return and we'll be back to normal, whether new or not.

Salt Water Shore Fishing Reports / Nothing was stirring
« on: December 23, 2018, 12:15:29 AM »
My son, Mike, and I headed out the Bat Fight HQ to see if the bay would provide us with some action. There was none to be had. The mini bait stealers gutted out a Mackie head and gave us a couple tugs. Lots of dead feel grass floating around. Thought I timed the tides correctly this time. I'm sure that the full moon didn't help. Can't catch if I don't go out.
We'll get one soon.

We didn't go to the bay, after all. The timeframe window before the tide would have peaked would have been about 30 minutes after food and travel.
With the upcoming storm(s), I think we'll hit Fiesta next time, unless conditions are too good to pass up.

Salt Water Shore Fishing Reports / Grinner Gathering First Time
« on: November 25, 2018, 01:43:51 PM »
FINALLY, I was able to attend a Grinner Gathering!
My son, Michael, and I got to the meeting spot at around 4pm to walk around the area during daylight and wait for the crowd to scatter. Lots of tide pooling. We got to see the lay of the reef for future trips. Got lines wet a little after 5pm.
Thus begun the battle with the current and purple and green salad. EVERY would pull to the left. The lack of Sputniks caused for more of a challenge.
The sunset, headlamps came out and the battle continued. After a period of time, my son noticed a tall figure silhouetted in the distance. It was a Sasquatch sighting. Thank you, Steve, for letting us borrow a 6 oz. Sputnik. The current had other plans, though.
Little by little, others began to show. Brian (FISH86R) followed by Tom
The current and salad continued......
The conversations were great, as any chance to meet with this community of anglers is welcoming.
Later, we meet Bihn,Mike (Pinoyfisher), and Elliott. And the salad and current continued.
We called it quits around 8pm. We had a thought of heading to MB but the timing just didn't seem to work. Decided to get food and head home with another stripe.
Thank you Tom for arranging this gathering and for the awesome swag. The conversations and Intel is always appreciated. King Neptune got us on this one but, as you stated, the grinders are out there.

My son and I made our maiden trip to the "Soup Kitchen". Conditions were beautiful but nobody wanted to play. Patience is now being tested. Our day will come. We just need to keep heading out, but the second guessing and doubts get louder. One day, we will get a grinner.

Beautiful kitty. My son and I were just north of you. Were were south of Cardiff Reef, near the bars? Just below the outlet. Glorious conditions but not a single sniff at our baits.

Simply mind blowing!
This is right up there with the night you caught 11 bat rays in the bay.
