Hookpoint editor Grant Jones goes through everything you need to know to target and catch the gigantic stingray that populate the shores of the Canary Islands. It's common for these ray to weigh in the hundreds of pounds and they will use all their weight and strength against you in the fight so you better be ready!
Just how big these ray can get and still be landed on UK beach fishing tackle is ably demonstrated by Roy Moore, who successfully does battle with what is potentially the largest round fantail stingray (and heaviest fish overall) landed from the shore in Europe to date! This capture is documented from 10:13. The full story of Roy's incredible fish and the rest of our trip will feature in an upcoming issue of Hookpoint magazine so keep an eye out for that.
