Close encounter of the painful kind? How about bitten , stung or rammed anyone ?

My only marine life injuries have come from small, innocuous creatures. In Bonaire I swam too close to a nesting sergeant major and the little bugger shot out and chomped my finger.
And the killer bluegill in Haigh Quarry. Note to self, no matter how warm the water is, wear a hood! At safety stop near the south dock, a bluegill bit my chin. Drew blood and left teeth marks all the way around. It was entertaining explaining that at work the next day!

Me, not yet. In 1972 as teenagers my brother and I were snorkeling for shells in Gilchrist, Texas when a Man-O-War got him. He dropped his shell bag and screamed running out of the water. Found out that Chlorox is the remedy.

Forgot about stings and having to wear a hood to keep triggers off my ears and forehead.This stuff is more dangerous that I thought:crying2:
