I've shore fished a few times at vacation spots and we always would do it at the crack arse of dawn for like an hour. Gone before chairs were set up usually and definitely by the time there were swimmers.
Also never caught shite worth mentioning so I haven't done it in years.

Just spent 5 days in OB and there were multiple groups of fishers every day in the middle of the day smack dab in the middle of crowds. Do you go out of your way to be ignorant on every single topic?
What does smack dab in the middle of days and middle of crowds even mean? Who was there first? Its public access, right? If there were people fishing and people started swimming around them who is at fault?
At any rate the person who would willingly walk onto a crowded beach and start fishing around hoards of sunbathers and swimmers exist, as I said in the post you responded to, and are not the rule but are the exception to the rule, as I stated in the post you responded to. Since you and I agree 100% that those people do indeed exist you are as guilty as me of going out of your way to be ignorant. You point out that folks were fishing in the middle of the day in the middle of crowds. You haven't mentioned what their numbers were relative to the people fishing at daylight when other beach goers are still in bed....that is the rule that the morons you saw are the exception to, morons that I stated, unequivocally, exist.

I would remind you that the initial comment you responded to was simply:

there’s always some douche nozzle fishing amongst the swimmers.
Nobody said every fisherman who ever fished from a beach is an a-hole. You’re spending 3 pages arguing against a point that nobody ever made.

People attacked by nurse sharks are usually feeding them then they get their hands/arm bitten. Sharks do not have much dexterity in their bite. They are either biting or not. Not much in-between.
No doubt. Folks frick with nurse sharks and nurse sharks react.

Nurse shark attacks are the 4th most common type of shark attack. Somehow folks see a nurse shark, which appears to be a lumbering docile critter, and start fricking with it and when the shark does what a shark is going to do they are shocked.
That's why shark attacks are classified in two different groups, unprovoked and provoked. Anyone messing with nurse shark would be classified as provoked, and most any article you'll see about shark attack trends is quoting unprovoked attack numbers.
quote:
I would bet that unprovoked nurse shark attacks are almost unheard of but they do attack a bunch of idiots who frick with them.
You'd win that bet.
Not that this has anything to do with your argument over shore fishing.

I don't know why people would want to shore fish at a crowded beach
Go to one that's even just moderately occupied and fish.

hammerhead
There have only been 17 documented attacks by hammerheads since like 1600 when they started recording shark attacks. 0 fatalities.
The shape of their head makes the way they sense prey WAY better than what most sharks have, so it makes it easier for them to see that a human isn't their typical prey item.

That didn't stop some folks who saw the big hammerhead posted by James Spann from saying stuff like, "Catch that monster and kill it!". With every attack you have a certain group of people who take the "Any shark will do" reaction.

Yep.

People generally go to the same areas to swim. Either you know this and you set up there anyway, or you don't know this and figured it out when people started showing up.
Either way, you're the a-hole.

Ive never even done shore fishing at popular beaches. Who does that?
Entitled assholes.
They think getting up early means they've claimed the beach.

Beach fishermen are the cyclists of the fishing world.

I used to fish the surf behind our condo in Destin. I would get up early before the crowd invasion and get some sand fleas and try to catch Pompano but honestly it became work and the last thing I want to do on a vacation is work. Now I just go offshore one day and try to time my vacations around AJ season.
As for sharks, they have always been in the surf. I used to be a die hard surf guy here in TX and did well on the trout starting about July. Sadly, the sharks will devour fish in a donut so you either put them in a tub they can't get to or you just go home with half of some fish. As with the above statement, it becomes work dragging that thing into the water and then you also have to deal with the stingrays, which I am scared of more than the sharks honestly. Then there is the chance of getting vibiro. So, I just sit on the beach and drink white cans and might go sit in the surf zone when I have to pizz.

You completely missed the point there, professor. I was saying that it hammerheads will cruise that close to shore, a bull may well walk up to you. Bulls can move in very shallow water.

I know I responded to your comment but I wasn't even really talking to you honestly
Just sharing that about hammerheads because those videos where they charge something, sometimes a person, then stop tend to go viral.
