    This 632-pound mako, taken aboard the charter boat Venture, is the largest caught out of Montauk in the past seven years. The large bite mark on her side measured 15 inches wide by 18 inches high. Three days later, a 460-pound male mako with the exact same jaw size was landed.

    I know that sharks lose and replace their teeth throughout their lives, but what about other fish, like smoker kings, snappers, or others? Do they regrow teeth when they lose them? Read More
  • Puerto Vallarta Monster
    This wild fish didn't hit a bait or lure: It was shot on a spearfishing charter about 30 miles from Puerto Vallarta. Read More
  • Thread Herrings vs. Pilchards
    I always hear fishing guides in my hometown talking about thread herring and pilchards, and then read about fishermen on the west coast of Florida talking about whitebait and greenies. Are they all the same species of baitfish, or are they different? I am confused. Read More
