Question
MikeC –
Can you guys recommend fly tippet and flies for shark fishing? Targeting fish from 10-50 lbs in Biscayne and Everglades NP. Most are bonnetheads, lemons, blacktip and occasional small bulls. Sight casting from kayak.

In the RIO Toothy Critter leader here – the 20lb wire bite. Sharks on flats are usually willing to take any kind of streamer that’s presented well. Although sometimes they won’t eat anything :)… They do especially like red and orange flies. Something like the Flaming Lamborghini.
These leaders are super convenient, but if you can tie a haywire twist and an albright knot, single strand tends to fish better. Such as the Orvis Bite Guards in 8″ 38lb.
