re: Careful fishing in Gulf right now: last storm washed in millions of man of wars

I have got one of the tentacles wrapped around my leg once in the gulf, there is no mistaken it arky cousin. it was like getting stung a by a bunch of wasp over and over. The damn floating bag of the thing was probably 30 yards away, I didn’t even see it until I got stung.

It’s right up there with a stingray but not quite as bad. Hurt more at first but with stingrays it hurts significantly worse an hour later. (My dumbass didn’t cut him lose because I wanted my hook back.) Jellyfish it seems like u get stung all at once, these damn things it’s like little stinging bombs that keep going off especially as you try to the tentacles off you.

Trolling is absolutely a way to get lit up right now, that or snapper fishing is when they typically get me. Those stinging tentacles can be way further off from the floating bag then u think.
