Submitted by Chris fish on Mon, 2013-06-10 04:29
My brother Aron just got back from a weekend at a beach out of Albany chasing big sharks on kayaked out baits and sent me this photo.
they lost a monster that ate the whole tuna head he caught last week, landed a small bronzie about 2.5m on a whole bonito and after 3 hours on 50lb gear landed this monster of a ray that ate a whole salmon about 5kg!!!!
with this photo he is sitting right next to the ray not back from it, it was 1.8m across so according to the South African conversion charts somewhere around 190kg!!

that thing is ridiculous! Any more pics of it?
When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:
n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or
n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
