Snrub As a past charter captain I have over the years seen some huge hammers and tigers... On one trip we were tied up behind a shrimp boat that had been culling their catch. Our target was kingfish. We had a nice king maybe 30lbs on and a 800-1000lb tiger showed up. The water was calm and with the sun directly overhead you could see down 30-40' and see the chase play out. The king did well for a few moments till it tired out. The tiger hit it from the side cutting it into three pieces. Couple of chews and it turned around and ate the tail section. The fisherman was reeling in the head section but the tiger had other ideas, hitting it right behind the gills. The poor fisherman wound up with about six inches of fish..... But what a show that was. They are amazing critters.
