Scalloped Hammerhead
If you're looking for a unique angling adventure, consider targeting Scalloped Hammerheads off the coast of Hatteras, North Carolina. This area, influenced by the Gulf Stream, provides a migratory route for these fascinating sharks, especially during the warmer months, from late spring through summer. Hatteras is known for its proximity to deep water, making it a prime location for pelagic species. To target Scalloped Hammerheads, you'll need to head offshore with a reputable charter boat. Chumming is a common practice to attract sharks to the area. Heavy tackle is essential, as these are powerful creatures. Be prepared for a challenging fight! Remember that shark fishing regulations are strictly enforced; familiarize yourself with the rules regarding permitted species, size limits, and gear restrictions before heading out. Also, consider catch-and-release practices to help conserve the population.
