If you can catch a live stingray that should work. There where tons of them at navel liveoaks, as for the hooks go to hot spots and they have leaders for sharks big and small.

If youre just wanting to catch a shark(4 - 6 ft) but not a monster(8-10) use big mullet or bluefish/mackeral...you can buy the mullet frozen at most places....7/0 to 10/0 will do on hook size....just make sure the hook is poking out of the bait so you can set the hook.

the best times that i have had were right at dusk dark to a few hours after. make sure your leader ( steel ) is longer than the fish you plan on catching. if you hook a spinner, he will jump and cut you off.  wade out as far as you can and chunk your bait as far as you can. this should catch you some kind of shark. make sure you know the limits and such if you plan on keeping some. dont want to see anyone get a ticket. most sharks you should catch though, you will be legal to keep.

I was fishing alone at Perdido pass a few years back and had 8 hookups between 12 midnight and 4 AM....All were too big to even turn there heads...All were sharks that breeched the water,,,I wasnt ready for that size shark at all...I figure 6 footers....I caught bluefish at 5 to 8 pm the previous day and put them on ice until midnight....I upgraded some gear and tackle since then and just cant get a bite like that...I've only caught a few 3 and 4 footers since and one 5 footer.

Blues are everywhere...I catch most of my bluefish around the jetties of Perdido Pass...On ocassion I'll catch a few on the beaches to the west of the pass just before or just after dark.

they will eat them all. i myself favor the mid sized crocodile spoons. sorry, i dont know the ounce but any will work. they are mean fish and will hit dang near anything shiny.

Those lures will help catch a few fish...Might want to try some live and cut pinfish....Its hard to say what might be out there on any particular day....Take a little bit of artificial and a little bit of dead bait...You might want to catch a few baitfish  while your out there and fish them live.
