I think its called a clearnosed skate..it was over 30" wingspan...I thought i had a stripe r then I turned on my light...

That sounds like a good bet to be the ray that was coming to nibble my toes before I gave him a poke with the rod butt. Thanks, I'll get this thread back on track and share my best from shore this season.

That's from shore. Fishing can be so funny. Usually I'm all geared up wiping out in boulderfields all night, untying eel knots etc. This night the wife wanted to drink wine with her friend so I grabbed some fresh mac and told her to call me when she wanted me to pick her up. Parked at my folks cottage, walked to the beach in bare feet and boom. Best fish of the season. I'll take it!
