  • This video tells the story of two INSANE catches that happened back to back, on the Florida Coast!
    One of these fish was insanely strong and way bigger than me, and the other one was one of the strangest fish I have ever seen!
    STAY TUNED FOR NEW VIDEOS COMING WITH DAD, AND MONSTER FARM POND FISH!

      Big click bait! Stingrays are fortunately quite docile in most cases, the barb on their tails are a natural form of self defense that they may use against being eaten. But there are locations in the world and even a place called Stingray City in Grand Cayman where humans and Stingrays in the wild interact and get fed. And I personally love petting Stingrays myself💙 but self defense is common in most animals in the ocean. Its eat or be eaten as they say.

      Most hooks rust out within a few months or less. The fish will be fine, it would be more traumatizing for the ray if it was wrangled to the point of being able to remove the hook. Understandable concern if you don't know what you're talking about.

The hooks are designed this way, being submerged in salt water would speed up this process. Getting a ray of that size into a boat without harming either party would be damn near impossible. I am sure that bringing the ray onto the boat would have resulted in injuries. The ray is fine.

    We have oyster toads up in the Chesapeake Bay.. I've seen them bigger than that. I don't know if you noticed the weird noise that they make. Sounds like a dog barking. Similar to the flying Robin.
    I cought an Atlantic Stingray at Solomon's Island back in 74, it measured 9 and 1/2 ft across the wing. It was probably a record but I was young and only interested in Rock fish..🤔

      Rays are actually fish, btw, if that is not known to some here.

      Its the right and proper thing to do for the safety and well being off the fish ,if the hook is swolled you risk damaging the fish's gills and mouth retrieving it if removed then the fish will die of starvation or drowning, hooks are biodegradable and will eventually fall out or break off hence giving the fish a much higher chance of survival. Just imagine having a hook removal tool or a pair of pliers being jammed down your throat with twisting and yanking tearing up your mouth or throat. These fisherman did exactly what your suposse to do. By the way the ray will survive because of their action leaving the hook in and cutting the line away.People need to be more educated

    Let me tell you a story... I was a commercial fisherman in Florida for 20 years. In the winter, when things were slow, we would half moon the beach to catch a few fish to sustain us. This was highly dangerous due to the amount of stingrays there that time of year. We had boots made out of the thickest canvas we could find doubled up. Impossible to stick a ice pick through them with all your strength. So we were protected up to our upper thigh which covered most situations. However, we had done a fairly deep water half moon, dropping off to 6 foot, and lo and behold the corner of the net got stuck on a rock when we had the net halfway dragged down where the fish were feeling crowded. I went out to unhook the net off the rock with my foot in water up to my neck, meaning my upper body was exposed but I had done this numerous times and never had a problem, but when I turned around I was face to face with about 30 stingrays hovering in a perfect flight pattern with their tails twitching above their heads, ranging from 5 to 30 pounds, ready to strike. I froze expecting the attack to come, but they just stayed there. the only move they made was to pivot from looking at me to looking at the net on my left. I couldn't believe the intelligence, they were asking me, firmly, to let them out. I slowly reached over and pulled the top of the net down and they immediately went within a foot of me on their way out. That made the top 10 in my close call life experiences. When stuck by a large stingray, even if they don't hit a vital organ, many times they cant pull the barb out and just swim off dragging the person behind them to their doom. They will head for deep water and the person will drown.

We fought it for an hour and saw it flopping in the surf one time before it decides it'd had enough. No choice but to break the line. 10lb test maybe 25 lb leader. Perfectly hooked or he'd have broke us sooner.

    Caught one of those once. Was fishing off a pedal boat on the calm side of the jetty at Saint Andrews State Park in Panama City, FL. The oyster fish came up slowly like pulling up an anchor with tackle. Up from the depths it came and the closer it got the clearer I could see something I wasn't going to touch lol. Pedaled back to shore and used a catfish flipper to unhook it. Nasty looking fish for sure.
