What shark species are found in Georgia waters?
Georgia's coastline along the Atlantic is a nursery for many shark species. I can trace my first encounter back to a fishing trip off Tybee Island where we caught a juvenile blacktip. The most common species include blacktip, spinner, sandbar, Atlantic sharpnose, bonnethead, and hammerhead sharks. Great whites are rare but occasionally pass through deeper waters.
