About Steven

Like many shark fishermen, I started catching sharks while targeting other species. Once introduced to the shark I wanted to catch them. I remember hoping for a shark to hit when I was a child trolling the off shore rigs for kings. The pup sharks under a popping cork always gave a fight greater than the equivalent speckled trout and while bull red fishing, the scream of my Penn 209 always seemed to sound a little different when a shark took the bait. The addiction came when they got too big for my tackle and after being spooled and broke off a time or two, I decided it was time to upgrade and it was then that I realized I was actually targeting sharks and had been wanting to my whole life but never quite willing to admit it I guess, It’s weird to me, seems so many people are in the same boat... Can you remember saying, “What if we caught a shark?” as a child?

Once I realized this hidden/forgotten desire, I had to progress; trying some crazy stuff, spending evenings on the beach with folks that have been Shark Fishing for a decade was humbling… finally, I learned ‘back to basics’ and so, my company catch phrase was born, “Our leaders combine new innovative ideas with proven old timer ways…” I did learn that, for the most part, we are all constantly learning. There are some masters of this sport but, I’m not one of them. I’m just a guy who loves to catch big fish and I’m doing all I can to promote that in my life. I am a free spirited and prosperity minded person and I firmly believe it is sometimes better to get new twice as often then to get one that last twice as long.

About the site

We are just launching this site so I wanted to mention a couple important things. CatchSharks.com is here for your shark fishing and heavy terminal tackle needs, specializing in Electroreception Deception (ED). Our beginning is about promoting and encouraging responsible and safe shark fishing. I have dreams of becoming a global heavy terminal tackle company and I plan to build these dreams by constantly promoting and encouraging all responsible shark fishing and fishermen.

Our production shark leaders are built with emphasis on catch and release. They are simple, back to basics with a little modern flare and ideal for anyone specifically targeting sharks. We have a leader for most any fishing situation. Of course, shark fishing is a personal thing and many people develop there own way of doing things. Our production leaders are a marketing campaign designed to get folks started and avoid the misconceptions that cost them time, money, and effort as well as jeopardizing the health of many sharks caught. We know folks grow as shark fishermen developing their own strategies’ based on their own experience and what works for them, inevitably, wanting to build there own leaders. CatchSharks.com doesn’t just build quality leaders… We sell everything in our leader building inventory to allow you to custom build your own leaders. We also have a long list of links that we promote. Many are linked to responsible veteran shark fishermen with information we think is important and valuable. Other links include important organizations and associations. We have hand picked these links because we believe in them, please take the time to read them and promote them yourself, as we believe they all have something that will make people all around better and more responsible fishermen.

I invite you to check out the site, review my products, and let me know what you think.
