So, The wife and I went on a trip in the San Diego Bay with Heroes on the Water and of course the wife out fished me again! haha.

Just curious, she caught a horn shark right out of the bay.

What are the shark breeds off of the Oregon Coast? Are they few and far between or do they have sweet spots that they like to accumulate?

Thanks!
Evan

I was hoping one of the resident fish bios would chime in. Google Academy has quite a bit of info on the subject of course. Common local sharks that I know of are white, blue, salmon, and leopard. As I understand it salmon sharks hang out near salmon and white (great white) sharks hang out near seal breeding grounds and other places seals congregate.

There are 34 species of sharks off the Oregon Coast. Check out Pacific Coast Shark News Shark Research Committee. They list shark sighting along the whole west coast and gives you a complete listing of all sharks along the coast and how dangerous they are to man.
