Anyone know anything about shark fishing in SoCal? Maybe a charter? Any help would be appreciated.

Bad article info wise and a bad idea overall, Maybe one once in awhile but not a sustainable fishery. Sharks are apex and cannot sustain predation. The world shark population has collapsed because of cultural practices and belief that they posess curative properties. IMO leave them alone. P.S. I grew up on the beach in Del Mar, Free dived and spear fished since I was in kid in the 60's there are just not that many.

The article is full of super solid info. He even explains the importance of catch and release as he emphasizes the slow growth rate they have..... I don’t think you read it
 
Call the landings and ask if any of their boats are doing shark trips. A few here in the San Diego used to do them. I'm a retired captain and we used to run them out of Oceanside. Mission Bay and San Diego did too, but I'm not sure what's going on now. You can always do a private charter.
