June is here and so begins the hunt for large sharks. June has a history of producing large bull sharks on PINS. The warm waters often bring in tigers and hammers. If you have not gotten your gear ready, get a move on! Need a new rod? We have components you need to build a rod. We can even build it for you.

Fish Friday: At the Fisherman's Wharf weigh station in Port Aransas, the Hubener family of Fulshear stand with a 235-pound swordfish they caught on a fishing trip out of Port O’Connor on a recent day. They caught the fish using squid about 100 miles offshore. At right are Kandice and Christopher Hubener, boat owners. Kneeling in front is Capt. Lane Kilgore of Galveston. Left of the fish is Cameron Hubener. At far left is Capt. Dee Wallace, state weighmaster, of Fisherman's Wharf. The Hubeners had the fish filleted for eating. They also were taking photos to a taxidermist to have a replica of the swordfish made. (Courtesy photo.)
