Good job on the fish everybody, especially nice work on the hammer Adam, I've always heard you fish hard and don't give up, and that's what it takes to prevail over all.

Congratulations to Team SharkLife Adam Lopez on that slob hammer, its a beauty ,team shark life in case you don't already know and to anybody who doesn't know from lack of experience or just being new to the sport let me give you my two cents on lemon sharks, and to some people this can save you from losing a few of your ten digits or having to run to the er in the middle of you fishing trip Lemon sharks in my opinion are the by far most dangerous sharks to deal with boat side on the sand or leaning over a sea wall trying to cut your wire off as close as possible they are unpredictable and have explosive tempers, the next time any of you are fishing and catch a lemon shark think of me and just look at their eyes you will notice that they follow your hands or movements with their eyes and sometimes even appear to be dead motionless and all of a sudden take bite it sounds crazy but next time somebody catches one remember what I said just my two cents, to everybody good luck and and tight lines.

Team Reel Fake angler Firedawg with help from Sharkgirl. 9'1" Scalloped Hammer.

There was only two of us so it wasn't easy to get pics and measurements with a pretty green Hammer. It was 9'1" when Diana and I measured him, but when I had to stake the tape and hold the tape it was 9'3/4" either way it's my PB Hammer (even if it's by an inch)!!!!

I can't get the pics any bigger, this is how they were sent to me. Can anyone help???

Nice scalloped Hammer Bill congratulations ,It's the first in this year's BHC.I was able to resize them bigger but a bit distorted which always happens when you go up in size.

ps.......... Redbull can is in the last tail pic
