Just curious to hear opinions and thoughts of all. What's your favorite shark, and why? Doesn't have to be for sport necessarily, could be look, colors, to eat, or maybe their power.
Makos, threshers, GWs, hammerheads and tigers are all really cool.
But for me my favorite is sevengills. Little is known about them. Yet live in deep water then come into re shallows in summer to eat/give birth. They can get over 11' and probably over 1000lbs, yet the record is only 240 lbs about.
But hard to beat a GW on any account. The biggest, the meanest, extrely rare (to catch) and good table far supposedly.
I'm kinda fixated on a tiger. It's the only species in the gulf, besides a GW and thresher, that we haven't landed. Have had one on and am in awe of the power.
To look at I would have to go with the whale shark. The biggest fish in the ocean but also the most docile, I would love to swim with one.
As far as for sport I haven't caught a whole lot but I think the speed and acrobatics of blacktips and spinners can't be beat... well maybe that will change if I ever hook a hammer or a tiger.
Tigers look awesome and I can not wait to see one in person. That's my main goal.
Blacktips on the surf gear are very fun to catch. Love the jumpers!
tiger shark all the way 
I would have to say the Grey Reef Shark. I know there isn't any around the Florida Area. But many years ago when I saw them, I just thought immediately that is the coolest looking shark to me. Nothing special, just has that classic sleek shark look to them, and I love that they are relatively small. I like small sharks.
3 way tie between Great White Shark, Tiger Shark, and Whale Shark. Caught a Tiger Shark a couple weeks ago and have to say that seeing those stripes motivates me to catch another one.
I would say my favorite is the bull. Not only do I catch them on the beach but also in the brackish rivers. Also their weight per size makes even the smaller ones great fun to catch.
Tiger shark without a doubt. Beauty meets power.

That Tiger Pattern is Beautiful!
Heys, I knowthat video has been around for a while of the Killer Whales killing The Great White. Have any of of you seen the video of them doing it to a Tiger Shark as well. I guess it's more of a common occurrence than I thought.

Killer whales are cold water though and tiger like warmer water.........I didn't think their ranges over lapped, but I could be wrong
