Smooth hammers are harmless. especially that size. its associating his yak (floating debris) with food. just looking for fish.

Yeah that guy was way chill. I tried scratching his back before I turned the camera o but he didnt get close enough.
I didn't feel that he was being aggressive at all. The local 7 gillsI are more aggressive than this guy.
And I'm sure he thought there was food around because I had a bleeding 20lbs yellow on the back of the yak. He probably followed the blood trail right to me. Good times though. Its a real treat to see these guys in our local waters.
