Re: Tons of Sharks in the Shrewsbury River???
Cownose rays have been feeding on those pods of bunkers in Raritan Bay for a couple of weeks. Someone on the Sea Hawk about two weeks ago threw a snagger in a bunker pod and a cownose ray hit it and got caught.
Cownose rays do have a stinger in their tail but it's not deadly like that of the stingray that killed the Crocodile Hunter (who was very foolishly closing on it from above and behind). Stingrays hunt by listening for the heartbeat of their prey, which is why he got hit right in the heart. Cownose rays are proliferating like mad because sharks are their main predator and the shark population is in trouble (we ain't talking about dogfish). Cownose rays can wipe out large concentrations of oysters and other shellfish. Their wings are definitely edible. Whether you like them depends on your taste. |

Re: Tons of Sharks in the Shrewsbury River???
The rays/sharks/killer whales/ Irwin murderers were thick in the MI today. I busted off a screamer that went for my bucktail and fought one that was maybe 15-20lbs to the rocks (although I really have no idea how to guess what these things weigh).

Re: Tons of Sharks in the Shrewsbury River???
Cownose Rays!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
everyone is mistaking them for sharks? Wait until you see a BIG fin coming out of the water-that would be a shark! This is an excellent site for information-and a video! http://www.chesapeakebay.net/fieldgu...er/cownose_ray ...and if you find one that looks like it's wings were bitten off by a shark? look closer and notice that the cut was made by a knife and was not the result of a shark.
