If you really want to have some fun, go rent you a BIG ROD and REEL, then go down to where the fishing boats come in and get them to give you a bonita fish, they are real bloody and not good to eat. Go out to the pier about a hour before dark and find you a young local boy with a kayak and tell him to row out to the end of the pier and meet you. Cut off about a 3 to 4 pound piece of that bonita and put it on a real big hook on that big rod and reel and lower it down to him and tell him to take it out about 150 to 200 yards and drop it. Attach that big rod and reel to the rail that goes around the pier with a rachet strap and set the clicker to come on. Sit down in your chair with a cooler of drinks and a sandwich and wait. If everything goes right,which it usually does, be ready after a couple of hours and see what picks that bait up and eats it. Just be ready for a 3 or 4 hour fight and when you get that 8 or 9 FT shark in take pics and cut the line. Then try to get your wife and kids to go swimming in the ocean the next day Trust me it works, that is why my wife won't go in the ocean anymore,she has seen me and others do it and has seen what lurks around out there in the dark.
