Stingrays skeer me. I have caught em as big as the hood of a full sized truck. I no likey even out of the water. Nasty primitive critters. They'll be fished hard now. Talk about a tackle wrecker.
This guy got cold cocked by nature. Will the people around him swear the stingray saw a shark and was just trying to protect Steve?
I don't think they'll necessarily fish them hard because of this, and I know Steve would find that really distressing. But they are a creepy looking fish :~) - Except when they're moving, they're beautiful in 'flight'.
I don't know what goofy people will say, I usually leave them to say it before I guess. :~)
