Caught this 5'5" hammer after soaking baits all afternoon on friday. Just a little guy but it was a heck of a fight on the 4/0.

I really wasn't paying attention lol, really just wanted to get her back in the water asap...I know scalloped hammers have arched heads unlike greats but the picture is still unconvincing to me.

Cool, didn't know about the curved pelvic fin. I was comparing the pics from the Great I got two years ago and they are almost identical to this one so that's more confirmation.
