And that's why I carry something a little more lethal than a paddle while out there. I am glad I have not, and hope I never have an encounter like that. Two 5' diameter 1000lb sea turtles were bad enough.

Dude was probably cutting up a bonito for bait, then wonders why big toothy shows up. Rocket scientist, that one.

Someone needs to add chlorine to the gene pool.

Those genes will eliminate themselves from the pool given enough time.

I know this.... we had a hammerhead that all agreed after the fact was in the 10' length range swim right smack up to the boat when we were shark fishing one day on our recent trip to the keys and all I can about that is that even then I was thinking that I needed a bigger boat!!   It's hard to explain the adrenaline rush that comes with having a 500 lb. class toothy beast close enough that you can literally reach out and touch it...if you dare.  They are simply very impressive animals..and clearly do not fear anything in the water.  Having said that hammerheads in particular can be picky eaters.  Just the same...what a beast!
