shark fishing in gulf shores?

been getting into surf fishing…did some in Dominican Republic and hooked up with some smaller barracuda…..would like to try and catch some smaller shark while im in Alabama for a week. What kind of gear (rod,reel,line) do you think would be sufficient to catch them. Will prob bring a kayak so i can take my bait out….so really dont want a surf rod. Also what sorts of baits should I use. I see a lot of guys using fresh barracuda.

I’ve been shark fishing a couple of times and my bait was fresh cut mackerel with a balloon as a bobber and a size 4 shark hook. Also don’t forget your wire leader and for the line you won’t be needing more than 30-40 pound test for small sharks. And for a rod and reel if fishing for sharks with a kayak use a trolling reel but if from the shore you can use a good bait cast reel with a nice drag like a Penn 500 with any type of ocean rod if there’s any mackerel around they would come on bait catchers (6 little hooks on a line that have feathers and shiny things) and you should ask the locals what there techniques are and they might give you a lice of barracuda too well anyway good luck and happy fishing
