Default RE: What is your dream shark out of the surf?

A bonnethead is a hammerhead, its just a smaller species. We have 4 species in the gulf I think. Smooth, great, scalloped and bonnetheads. Bonnets willtop out at around 5 feet or so. Both smooth and scalloped will reach 13ft. Great hammerheadsare the monsters of the family and will supposedly reach 18ft. in length. You can catch Great, scalloped and bonnets from the surf butI think smooth hammerheads prefer deeper water.
