There used to be a fellow that had a blue bus that he made into a camper that was allways at the fourchon beach. Had a very large generator on the back and he wouyld string q/h lights on pvc poles out into the surf out to the second sand bar.
He'd fire up the generator just b4 dark and we'd sit around eat a lil supper and drink a few beers and wait for the fish to show up.
Allways caught all the trout we wanted under the lights .
It's very scarey what you will see in 3 foot a wadda at night.
Not only the sand sharks and black tips that are allways there but we have seen a few BIG Bull sharks lurking around the edges of the light.
Jacks and bull reds , small cobia and lots of spanish macs all were caught under these lights.
Night time is the one time that each fish i caught was brought back to shore. No stringers or dough nets for the sharks to get interested in.

Yes you are correct they do have alot of sharks there @ times. I had my stringer nailed this year.

Last year Sulphite and I were fishing off the beach and we thought we saw a bunch of redfish schooling; alot of big tails coming out the water.
We then realize the tails didnt have spots, sharks everywhere. I'm talking thick like a school of mullet; I was glad to be fishing out of the Sea Ark that day and not wading. BTW the water was mirky that day with lots of people wading, it was kinda spooky.

Stick to biglake less sharks speckdaddy

My foot didn't touch water until we were 2 feet from the beach...way way too many sharks!

[exspeck big specks]

Yea had some goods trips on full moons at night. Big Trout feed at night when those full moons are out, most on subsurface baits these days. We used to catch them on those glowing top dogs when I was a kid. Use you flashlight to light it up to bright green . I agree it is kind of spooky and you hear trout hitting and mullet running, fun stuff!

Get a couple of old plastic shrimp baskets and put some old ring bouys on them.
Sharks won't hit that. Be sure to put a top on them with a hinge. Or the fish could
jump out.

I don't think E-man was worried about sharks getting his fish, he didn't want to become 'collateral damage' with a bunch of blood in the water.
