My youngest son caught him yesterday on St simons. We catch them all the time without any problem but yesterday this one caught me with my head up my ass.
I was half ass holding him trying to get the hook out when the fucher hit me. I tried to pull it out several times but couldn't. So I decided to shot gun a beer and pick the 2.5 foot wide sting ray up and break his stinger off in my arm rambo style
.
Went to the emergency room and had to wait on a hand surgeon to come remove it. It hit a couple tendons and according to the surgeon I couldn't pull it out because it was 3 inches deep. She wasn't to proud of me for yanking on it.
The barb wasn't that bad but the venom or poison they shoot in your ass when they hook you hurts like a bitch.
