I'll never look at a Needlefish or Ballyhoo the same again.

its probably been close to a decade but I recall a houndfish that hit a
young girl in the neck in the daytime. I want to recall it  was at
Bahia Honda (maybe Sombrero), the girl didn't really like the water or
the beach and  was dragged along by her family for a family day at the
beach & gets impaled in the neck by a houndfish, she lost alot of blood
but survived....

Wasn't quite sure which fish it was, so for those like myself that were not
sure what the needlefish looked like, Google came up with:

just to mention a few.

DAMN!  And I was worried about running into Old Moe (big hammerhead) off of
Marathon.
