Stingrays on Big Lake
 

Guys, we busted them up other day! Talk about good eating! W was loving it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gary!!! There aint NO Way I would go on BIG LAKE IN THAT BOAT!!(the Pickle).....NO WAY!!!!

HOW?
 

I have never caught a sting ray... BUT... if i ever do... How the hell would i grab it to get it off of my line?

ASK W!

Thats shark bait!

LOOK at this SIZE of that JIG HEAD I have on!!! You know Thats not in BIG LAKE!!!LMAO

When I clean them, I use a cookie cutter............Kinda cool......you get christmas tree, and santa
shaped fish chunks!!!!

Catfish said: Never bring a stingray into the boat. Grab the line way up above it and cut the line.

If you think a cat fish sting is bad......a stingray is 10 times worse. At least that is what I have read.

ive caught a HUGE skate..that is basically an orange stingray..he faught hard!

I stepped on one in fourchon several years ago.
I wouldn't wish that pain on my worst enemy(Jeremy Waltrip),LOL

4 days of the most excruciating pain you can imagine.
I wanted to cut my leg off several times.
What I didn't know at the time was the treatment.
Get the wound in as hot water as you can stand.
It will draw the poison out of the wound.

I stab every one I catch and let um go.
I have a vendetta against them.

Tim, You actually eat them. Tell me you are kidding!

Yes Gary, I'm kidding.............but if I was to clean one, that's what I'd use..........

Thank goodness!

i have caught 2.one was at the jeddies and one at cal point.the barbe is about1/3 down the tail.be carefull they will try to get you.they do fight pretty hard.

I was trawling one day and as i was picking up the net a sting ray got me (just a little cut on my finger). Its about 1000X worst than a wasp. My arm with numb all the way to my shoulder, its bad. the only thing you can do is put hot water on it helps alot; i guess pissing on it might work.

No,pissing only works for jellyfish.It's the amonia in the piss that helps with jellyfish.
I got harpooned in the ankle by the stingray.
It was really ,really bad.

Major sting !
 

I have wondered what level of pain the Crocadile Hunter (Steve Erwin) must have endured when he got hit in the heart !! by that big ray ? :eek:

that's usually what happens when you tip your soft plastics with dead shrimp.

A little ray
 

Caught this one the other day

thats a freaking huge one... where at ?

We were fishing out of Cocodrie near Last Island

caught one that size last year in vbay. my girlfriend was fishing with me and she threw out her line and started reading a book. yeah. and after 15 mins i told her to reel it in to see if she had bait left. she told me she was stuck. got the pole and pulled straight and hard to break the line then it took off. got that bastard in after about 15min then he broke a brand new allstar rod. pull him on side the boat and stabbed him about 50 times. i wear steel toes now when i wade fish.
