Sea angling legend
Among the sea angling legends of Ireland, there is no doubt that Jack Shine stands out. During his lifetime, Jack Shine was able to catch over 100 pound porbeagle sharks in a number of different places. He also caught bass, wrasse and pollock from the Clare coastline.
Jack’s biggest porbeagle was 145 pounds. He also caught four over 100 pound porbeagles in 1963. In the beginning, Jack Porbeagle targeted the deep water marks around Green Island near Lahinch. He used an 8 foot medium weight rod and a massive fixed spool reel. The rod had a 90lb b/strain 7 foot wire trace.
Jack’s tackle was basic by modern standards. He used a Luxor fixed spool reel and 400 yards of 19 lbs B.S. line. His baits were tail end of 7 ounce mackerel. He also used an 8 foot solid glass rod.
Jack’s most memorable hookup happened in August ’67. A local angler was fishing on the rocky ledges at Ballyreen. He landed a Pollack, but the head was gone. The angler was not surprised. He thought a larger fish was coming. He waited for a while. Then the fish started to cruise out of range. Then he saw a shark strike it.
