    HerbcoFood I had never heard of them being fresh water thought. I thought the Mekong Delta was more salty to brackish water, depending on the exact location.

    calldoctoday I used to watch river monsters with Jeremy Wade on Animal Planet. He was somewhere in Asia and he caught one of those huge freshwater sting rays. I can tell you Jonathon I will never get in the water system in the rivers in Asia. They have some crazy fish in those systems!

            calldoctoday saltwater fish and crabs go up stream all the time, so whether it was truly fresh water or brackish the same creatures could be there. I have caught crabs below Lake Houston dam and then this article shows just how far those salt water fish will travel.

            mrobisr Yes, I understand & the Mekong River itself is freshwater. I keep thinking I have seen sharks in the St. Johns river up a pretty good bit & the San Jacinto, the crabs you mentioned in several locations, even landlocked Redfish, Crab, Flounder, Maybe Sheepshead (if my memory is correct), & Gator Trout in Guana & a lake down near Victoria or Corpus Christi (I cannot remember its name), etc. I think those boneless sharks/rays even do better adapting than the bony ones I think. The article called the sting ray a “freshwater Fish” though & that is what threw me off.

              mrobisr You’re in Houston? There used to be a restaurant downtown and I was sure it was called Jonathan’s but maybe it was Brennans that I’d have to go to from time to time for my job. They had reserved rooms for the Bush’s and other rich families where they stored their wine and only they could use the room. I did get fed lunch once while I was there all day and the food was unbelievable. Houston’s humidity and traffic made it a nightmare for me but the food was amazing!

              Also, from today https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/swimmer-suffers-significant-injuries-in-shark-attack-in-california/vi-AAYM9pr?ocid=entnewsntp&cvid=a1c4fc423bdb42ac91de016ba2e1c4d8 I am TELLING you guys, sharks are figuring out we are food!

              Jonathon said in No water is safe:

              You’re in Houston?

              No, I fished Lake Houston years ago.

                  mrobisr I am guessing that is a great white too from the dorsal and tail fin. No expert but I cant think what else it would have been.

                                    Tex_77 Yeah, they returned about 10 years ago. It was the resurgence of the cape cod fur seal apparently, they left when there wasn’t enough food but seal populations have exploded so they came back…and they arent little ones, they are the BID Ol pregnant female a lot. They caught an 18 footer on camera basically doing the jaws scene where it was trapped on top of a cage…there is no footage of it on the internet?! Oh my god did I dream this? No, here is the IMDB https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2017535/ but they are holding that footage off-line…interesting.
