Default NJ Shark Surf Report 7/8/17

Decided to give shark fishing a try last Saturday in hopes of catching my biggest fish so far. Location was near the southern tip of long beach island. Had a good night tossing bunker as far as possible without a kayak.
Had a couple of bites once the sun set and high tide started going out; one 5"10" Sand Tiger and lost one unknown shark that jumped twice and then presumably cut the 100lb leader on a rock.
Full moon all night, was great to be able to see the sharks jumping even in the dark.

Went back this Saturday with a kayak hoping to get the edge this time with more distance..but with 3-4ft surf it was tough to make more than a couple of runs past the breaking waves. ended up casting again when the sun set. Not a single bite this time.

Looking for more reliable spots to catch something a bit bigger, if anyone is willing to share some general locations, I'd greatly appreciate it!
