Sharks on the Beach

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Join us for a beach exploration in the Southern OBX with sharks (dead & alive), shells, fishing, and good times!

[@ZenChillStudio]

Wonderful view! 🥰

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks!

[@crubbythebeagle57]

crubby like his fur friend wow great my friend

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you!

[@kapperoutdoors]

Wow! Awesome find!! I was actually fishing down there a few days ago and I had a big shark on, (probably this one...) but the hooks on my rapala broke!! LOL

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Well darn, Kap! I wish I would have known it was so fresh, we could have taken off some meat and fed ourselves for days!

[@FishfearmeStudios]

Title sounded like a B movie. Love your pup.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Haha, you are right! Now that I have that in my head I'm not getting it out. Thanks for stopping by. I've had a grueling schedule lately, but I have some videos of yours in my queue that I plan to watch soon.

[@mullisoutdoors]

I have never heard a whiting called a sea mullet before...lol...around here most people call them either whiting or their high class name The Southern Kingfish..Either way they are one of my favorite to catch off of the surf and man you are right Randy they are GOOD EATING!! Looks like you and Viv had a great relaxing day! too bad in all the sharks you caught you didn't get to pull one in like the one you found on the beach!! Man that would have been a fight on a toothy critter that big!! I hope you and the family are having a great one this week and thanks for the great video brother!!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks Lance, I appreciate it brother! I've never targeted the bigger sharks, but in seeing videos and real-life catches, that looks like the fight of a lifetime. It's funny how you say the high class name is Kingfish because I think that's what a lot of the locals think about calling them "whiting," so the reason I call them sea mullet is that's what most of the OBX locals say, lol. It might get a little confusing to some folks, but I kind of like how we can have several different names for the same fish. Several years ago, I was fishing on a pier in NC, and had a whole conversation with this guy. He kept talking about Rockfish and I had no idea until I looked it up, that he was talking about what I call Striped Bass!🤣

[@shellstories]

What an awesome trip! I'm not the best in shark ID either, but I think that giant shark might be from the Genus Carcharhinus. Apparently it is quite hard to ID to species. When I visited the Outer Banks, there were also quite a few big dead sharks. I even saw a super cool looking Angel Shark! Cool Shark eye shel too! I had good luck finding shells in the ramp 48/49 area and east from there in the South Beach area. Thanks for sharing!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

If you are able to just casually mention the correct genus, then I'd say you're selling yourself a little short on your shark ID skills! HOWEVER... you needed to get Carcharhinus brevipinnis for full credit. I posted this video on a OBX fishing page on FB and asked for help on ID, and it was indeed a Spinner Shark. I guess it's not really cool since it was a dead fish, but that's cool you were able to see an Angel Shark! And you are spot on in terms of the shelling location. I haven't posted the video yet, but shortly after filming this video, my son and I shelled in that exact location and we found several nice whelks!

[@kapperoutdoors]

It is pretty clear that you absolutely love fishing and hanging out on the ocean beach down there!! Good stuff!

[@LipRipperFishing215]

My dawg!!!!!! Getting it in all day! A dead shark and a live shark!! Cant go wrong with it!!!!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Those puppies weren't stocked sharks either!!! Although I'm looking forward to catching some stocked fish in a couple months...

[@LipRipperFishing215]

@@fatherandsonsfishing NopE!!! They from the deep blue sea!!.. Yea i cant wait to get it back some salt.. It was so amazing last year.... Yea but TroutO's you just cant go wrong with!!

[@HuntingFarmerOfficial]

I’m thinking Viv would have loved rolling in/on that dead shark!! 😂 Some cool finds (not the trash). Gotta love your excitement when landing the fish. 👍

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Haha Dave, you got that right about rolling on that dead shark. She's 13 years old and I've had plenty of experience with her rolling on things far more decomposed than this shark. Knowing she would be riding in my truck all day, I did not let her go anywhere near that shark!

[@borneosama-itah713]

Hadir sahabatku, mantap🇮🇩👍

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you!

[@JUNationFishing]

I love your cnr. It looks like mine, little short. 😂. I usually get lectures from my viewers of how to release a fish. 🤣. I am pretty sure the fish is not complaining since I didn’t release it in my frying pan. 👍🙏🎣⚒

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks JU! That's a great point and I am using that the next time anyone criticizes a release -- at least I didn't release it in my frying pan! 😂🎣⚒

[@RaulGarciaFishingandOutdoors]

that be awesome fishing for sharks!!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks buddy! Definitely something on the list to try in the future...

[@JohnAmes]

Thanks for the great video my friends

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks for watching, John!

[@134rwa]

Thats too bad about that dead shark, looks like one of the stunts went wrong from a Sharknado movie, haha.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Haha, Russell! I'm going to have to follow-up with the production company and tell them to tighten up their act!

[@bujangpalala10]

beautiful beach.. huge sharks full watching my friend 9:45

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you so much -- stay connected!❤️

[@FCPFishing]

Shame to see that shark on the beach. Hate seeing the litter as well. Viv had a great time, I am a dog person so she looks like someone I would get a long with just fine. Another fine video! Good to see you out there!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you, Dana! Vivi has never met a human she doesn't get along with, and the humans that even show her a little bit of attention have a friend for life in her. She's almost 13 and perfectly healthy, but it's not lost on me to value the kind of times like these that I have with her.

[@MinuteontheMountain]

Great stuff, Randy. Cool that you got to catch multiple species.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you, John! It was a great day and the multi-species was icing on the cake!

[@bucktalesoutdoors7566]

How appropriate to find a shark eye shell near that dead shark. Catching dogfish is fun unless you’re on a party boat trying to catch Cod and then they tangle up the lines on either side of you. Fun times with the curious pup.

[@bucktalesoutdoors7566]

I hate to say it cuz it might not have been legal but If I find a dead shark that size I am pulling out my knife and cutting those jaws out. What a great addition to my wall of bones.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

I've only caught dogfish from the surf, but I can imagine they would not be fan favorites on a party boat. I will say they are pretty tasty. I'm hoping we'll have another chance to catch them this winter/spring and I'd like to do a catch and cook.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

@@bucktalesoutdoors7566 100%! The only reason I didn't do that was because I wasn't sure about the shark ID. There are several species that have no regulations and if it were one of those, I can't see why cutting out the jaw of a dead fish would be a big deal. However, there are several that are also restricted and I decided that wasn't a conversation I wanted to have with the National Park Ranger or Game Warden. 😳

[@bucktalesoutdoors7566]

I gotcha. Better safe than sorry I guess.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

@@bucktalesoutdoors7566 Yeah, I didn’t want to be THAT GUY. Also - and I’m sure you know more about this than I do - but I know when it comes to shed hunting, that at least in some states, there are different regulations for finding a dead head vs just a shed, and I didn’t know if that logic even applied to sharks. I can just see the game warden looking through the back of my truck, “Thanks for cleaning up that trash, sir, but eh what’s that large shark jaw doing back there?” Lol!

[@tubbyguyoutdoors]

Beauty trip Randy ! To bad that big guy was washed up , I don’t have any saltwater experience but could it have been a goblin shark , the way the nose stick way out past the mouth . Washed up from the deep . Looked like you both had fun catching those dog fish . Thanks for taking us along bud . Hope you and the family are doing well .

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks Wyatt, I appreciate it! I didn't even think of a goblin shark, thanks! I just posted this video on a surf fishing page I follow on FB and there are several anglers on there who primarily target sharks so I'll be curious to know what they say.

[@tubbyguyoutdoors]

@@fatherandsonsfishing a positive ID would be cool

[@AuLily1]

Goblin shark was the first shark that was dead on beach.

[@CaptainZac]

Awesome action thanks for sharing Randy - seems like you never know what adventure you will find any given day at the Outer Banks! Too bad that big shark washed up :(. It was cool to see your dog Vivian having a total blast as you caught fish after fish!!! Tight lines my friend! Captain Zac

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you Zac! I'm sure you have more stories than I do, but you never know what you're going to come across on the beach or on the water!

[@美兮兮经典音乐_123]

Hey, you. whoever’s reading this, this is your sign. everything’s gonna be okay. you did not come this far to give up. I believe in you ❤️ Stay connected😜

[@AdamMiharaFishing]

Viv is a spunky lady at 13. Glad she didn't run into any more stingray issues.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Whew. You and me both, Adam. I am still gun shy when it comes to my stingray friends.

[@GoMidwestFishing]

Those sharks were cool. I was waiting to see how you land a 7 footer. That would have given Vivian something to bark about.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

The dogfish sharks we caught are pretty plentiful this time of year and actually good to eat. We may need to do a C&C sometime. If I would have landed that 7 footer, Vivi would have either barked a lot, or got her head bitten off. I am glad we didn't have to find out.

[@SWCFLORIDA]

Looked like a fun trip. I got hit in the leg by a big Southern Sting Ray. No joke

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks for watching! Any trip where you DON'T get hit by a big Southern Sting Ray is a good trip in my book!

[@johnnyrotten6191]

Blacktip or Spinner shark....

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks

[@EssayonsFG]

I hate finding litter on the beach too, Randy. How hard is it to take a bag with you? Never found a shark though. If it was a fresh shark it might have been good for harvesting. Shark steaks and shark fin soup are delicious. The small ones, not so much. LOL

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you Rob, and sorry I've taken so long to reply to this comment. The video you made several weeks about balancing time as a creator and a viewer really hits home! I think this shark was fairly fresh, but I didn't want to take a chance because even though the temperature was cool, it had been sitting in the sun. Hope you and the family are doing well!

[@TheOutdoorCatch]

To bad for that shark. I was afraid you were going to find more. Luckily you didn't. Nice job on picking up that trash!👍

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Fortunately it was the only one I found. Beautiful creature, but I guess that's Mother Nature.

[@chase72094]

Black tip shark? I found a washed up shark in oracoke back in July.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

I was thinking Black Tip too, but I had someone who knows their shark ID tell me it was a Spinner Shark. Very close to a Black Tip, only a few subtle differences.

[@noral101]

What kind of dog is Viv?

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

She is straight up mutt! We think she has some lab, cattle dog, poodle, and God knows what else! She's 13 years-old and I've loved every minute she has been in our lives!

[@noral101]

@@fatherandsonsfishing I was wondering if she was part poodle. Poodles are supposed to be non-shedding. She looks like a happy dog, I can’t believe she is 13 years old she looks much younger than that.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

@@noral101 She is definitely non-shedding and I’m not complaining one bit! A lot of people think she is still a young dog when they see her in person.

[@aliciaslifeinspain]

Oh no, poor shark dead on the sea shore what happened... Your dog enjoying in the beach hoping you catch a big fish... A baby shark you got

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you so much! I didn't see anything wrong with the dead shark so hopefully it lived a long life and just died of natural causes.
