Ryan DuVernay, co-owner of 7 Mile Watersports in Marathon, knows how to get an adrenaline rush, but he had a hankering to try his hand at sharkin' so we set out from the 7 Mile Marina on an outgoing tide to test a new spot in about five feet of water just off the 7 Mile Bridge.
Less than an hour after coloring the water red and baiting it with a smorgasbord of irrestible shark treats, our first guests arrived in the form of stingrays. Close behind on the buffet line were bonnethead and nurse sharks. Finally, the guests of honor arrived, the lemon sharks.
Ryan set to action and caught a total of seven lemons, ranging in length from six to seven and a half feet. An eighth ran so hard and fast, when it broke off, the rod snapped back and whapped Ryan in the forehead. He proudly displayed his quarter inch shark "wound" back at the dock!
