I'd go with the scent, sound, and electro out put of a struggling bait as the shark attractors. The only toxic fish we have locally is the sculpin (California scorpion fish). They're bottom dwellers and criptic camo. Doubt the HH would cross paths with a sculpin. Many toxic Fish are brightly colored, often with contrasting stripes. And many creatures avoid those colors. Maybe a color pattern similar to a sea snake? Sharks have small brains and most of that brain is dedicated to scent detection and body control. Sharks learning to look at humans for food is unlikely. Boats and fishing boats in particular produce shark attracting stimuli. Mike
