I didn't feel any pain so I knew I didn't get bit by anything yet. Then a minute later I felt it again, this time harder. Now I'm getting nervous as hell. I ended up skipping the last 30seconds of my deco (not recommended but it was my last dive for the day), and raced up to the boat and up the ladder. Once on board I realized the fluke I speared was still alive and that's what was hitting me in the leg! Gave the guys on the boat a good laugh.
