I've been swarmed by two-meter wide stingrays before, but they were Caribbean southern stingrays, not a freshwater species.

But yeah, rays can get very large, and they're very strong.

Fuck me. I saw one about two foot long at an aquarium once...

"The giant freshwater stingray, weighing as much as 350kg (772lbs, or about 55 stone), was the size of a garden shed and so cumbersome that Ian Welch had to enlist the aid of 12 other people to get it out of the water."

Up until now, I was under the assumption that only male stingrays had the venomous bard. I'll take more care when handling the female stingrays we always (unfortunately) catch while fishing.

I frequently go fishing - I love it

In fact, I was out fishing just last night near the airport up until just past midnight. Only caught a small Brim though - unlucky.

No, complete truth

It's a hobby that has developed since returning from London; prior to that, I despised fishing as I had not had good experiences.
