Father, son reel in fish and hammerhead shark

PONCE INLET, Fla. (FOX 35 ORLANDO) - An exciting day on the water for a father and son who had a close encounter with a hammerhead shark.

The person who shot the video, Joe Kilman, says Joe Alphonso and his son, Tommy, were trying to catch red snapper on Friday out of Ponce Inlet when the shark had the same idea.

Thankfully, the father and son got the catch of the day and the shark swam away.
