Actually, if you're under atatck or threat of attack by a shark, beating or thumping it between the eyes or on the top of the head is an effective method that could buy you time to escape.

And, while we're on the subject, did you know that sea bass are considered a ferocious fish?

Yeah.. They say that.. But I don't think I'd be able to wrap my mind around one thing from another.. Except the pain of shark teeth ripping at my flesh....

Man, I don't ever even want to be that close to react.
If I were, I would just be closing my eyes and praying to God that it be a fast death!!

I've fished for white sea bass in Panama, and man do they put up a fight... that just makes them all the tastier, though and dogfish is almost as good.... mmmm... ceviche *om nom nom nom*

Apparently people have lost fingers and chunks of flesh from sea bass. Crazy, but tasty indeed.

And this is why everyone scatters every time we go fishing and they bring up even just a skate. lol.

I hate being the one to take the hooks out, but nobody else will. They're so afraid of that tail.

When we let them go, then they're all freaked out about getting near the water. "That sting ray is probably still there!" No he's not. He just had the most traumatic experience of his life, he just had an alien abduction, you think he's gonna sit around in the same place?

But I still have to be the one to go out and do the sting ray shuffle and make them feel better.

"It's not here anymore guys. It's gone."

lol.

Poor misunderstood sting rays.
