Local Species Insights: Atlantic Sharpnose Shark

Atlantic Sharpnose Sharks thrive in South Padre Island's shallow, warm waters throughout summer months, making July an excellent time for targeting these streamlined predators. These requiem sharks prefer coastal areas with sandy bottoms and good current flow, often found near structure and baitfish concentrations. Their distinctive pointed snout and brownish coloration with white spots make them easily identifiable when brought to the boat. Local anglers appreciate their fighting ability and the excitement they bring to bay fishing trips, especially when using live croaker bait along the surf line.
