Is a white shark the same as a great white shark?

Ive fished and dove in the Gulf all my life. Never seen a White - didn't think they were there?

If I do ever see one, it will be my last time in the Gulf.

The great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias), also known as the great white,white pointer, white shark, or white death, is a species of large lamniform shark which can be found in the coastal surface waters of all the major oceans. The great white shark is mainly known for its size, with mature individuals growing up to 6.4 m (21 ft) in length (although reports have been published of great white sharks measuring over 8 m (26 ft),[3] and 3,324 kg (7,328 lb) in weight

I always assumed The Gulf was too warm for a Great White.

Guess that makes an arse out of you and me.
