The Hammerhead Shark (Sphyrna zygaena) is a large and rare fish from the Tropical Ocean. This species is named "smooth hammerhead" because of the distinctive shape of the head, which is flattened and laterally extended into a hammer shape (called the "cephalofoil"), without an indentation in the middle of the front margin (hence "smooth"). Unlike other hammerheads, this species prefers temperate waters and occurs worldwide at medium latitudes. In the summer, these sharks migrate towards the poles following cool water masses, sometimes forming schools numbering in the hundreds to thousands. The second-largest hammerhead shark after the great hammerhead shark, the smooth hammerhead can measure up to 5 m (16 ft) long. It is an active predator that takes a wide variety of bony fishes and invertebrates, with larger individuals also feeding on sharks and rays. As in the rest of its family, this shark is viviparous and gives birth to litters of 20–40 pups They are primarily found in the southern regions of the ocean, near Sepuluh Island. There is a glitch that causes Hammerheads caught by the player to be extremely small when viewed in the Aquarium.

Techniques
Reeling it in is pretty much like any other trolling fish. However, to find it, troll circling around Sepuluh Island on 1,2,4,5 baits to find it. White seems to work best.
