What shark scares you the most?

After all these years watching shark week I have to say the Bull shark gives me the creeps due to the fact they have attacked in shallow water, fresh water,and are the most aggressive.

The ones I don't see are the ones that creep me out.........

I'm ok with any shark as long as I can see him

The shark that scares me is the one who uses the motto, "fish are friends, not food"

Someone doesn't travel.

Bulls and Tigers for me. Bulls for their history of attacking and continuing to attack and Tigers mainly come to mind when surfing in Hawaii with all the crap they find in their stomachs. (license plate, part of a chair, etc.) It doesn't help some friends have been attacked by tigers. Bronze Whalers are pretty shady too. It all depends where you are. Surfing flat rock up in half moon bay, I am certainly thinking of big Whiteys when paddling in and out that damn channel.

Re: What shark scares you the most?

While diving in Florida I got a pretty up close look at a Bull shark. Pretty darn scary !!! Real big !!! It's pretty apparent why it's called a Bull shark.
