Got one in a lobster pot a few weeks ago! They are absolutely colossal, if my mate didn't have wifi on the boat we'd have been screwed! Just FYI if anyone does encounter the business end of one urine is the best immediate cure, no joke
A bad days fishing is still better then a good day at the office.
