WE THOUGHT IT WAS A FISH!! (DANGEROUS ANIMAL)

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!

[@queenneptune2456]

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.

@@douglasr.c.5622 The material nearly all hooks are made of is very prone to rust, having lived on the west coast of Florida my entire life, I have had hooks rust to dust in only a few months in my garage if not properly rinsed. 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.

Oh 😳 what a wonderful catch. Being I live in Wisconsin the biggest fish I caught was musky and northern. And big sturgeon when I lived by the Columbia river in Oregon.

[@durrmoment291]

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.

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.

I am 52, when I was single digits old I caught one of these at Chesapeake Bay. Until this day I did not know what it was. People told me it was a "dog fish" and none of my searches for it over the years turned up as this particular fish. Apparently it is also called a "bar dog"... Thank you for clearing it up for me after 40+ years of confusion!

It maybe a rockfish I could be wrong

@@angiebarratt1904 was told it was poisonous...

Would love to see or catch a stingray. Other fish is Oyster cracker or toadfish. Lots of teeth and spines catch them sometimes in crab traps too

[@jackrockwell6698]

It’s called a Toadfish known colloquially as an oyster cracker. They have insanely strong jaws and could easily take a finger off so they’re dangerous to handle. I caught tons of them in the Delaware Bay when I was a kid fishing for weakfish.

At 9 years old I caught one it is called a oyster cracker. And is next to impossible to kill out of Barnaget Bay N.J

With the concurve lens in this camera, it looks like if you travel 3 miles to the west you will come up on your original position from the east😏

Man. Hat's off to you dude's out in that little dingy. I learned a long time ago to not go out in the Atlantic in a row boat

Are you in the St. John's River? Water is kinda brown for the Atlantic. Have tons of fun!

that oyster toad is frickin' awesome! i t would be so cool to go out fishing in the ocean like that..

This guy is handling a very venomous fish completely unaware.

[@hillbillybobby8708]

Venomous dude 😅 lol youd be fine even if it got you. And just Google it yes toad fish are venomous. You just have to squeeze the top it's just a defensive tactic from being eaten.

[@hillbillybobby8708]

Poisonous and venomous are two different things

That fish that he picked up at the start is probably really happy because he dropped him in the water

A cute smiley toadfish...did he just kiss the fish? 😆
