Shocked

I think I would be more worried about breaking my paddle than the shark though.

Yeah I'd be pretty pissed also if someone kept smacking me in the face with a paddle... Laughing

Another reason to not go off shore on a little piece of plastic.

Kinda like a killer whale playing with a seal. Persistent for sure.

I would have been very scared. Looked like an 8 foot hammer to me.

...I think that kayaker was a Californian. Texans would have fed the shark and let it run away while they enjoyed a spirited skiing session behind the Hammer Express. Tired sharks don't act out like that! Very Happy

This week's Island Moon has a nice picture on the front page of an 8-foot Hammerhead in the first gut taken a few miles south of Bob Hall.

Maybe this like will work.
