FIshing off of a dock at a timeshare in Bath NC in the Pamlico river, trying to catch some striper that were on a run. Earlier in the day I had caught a 80 lb ray, and saw a bull snap a guys flounder line. I was sitting back in a chair with a nice hunk of bait tossed out there. Had the rod in my hands, something took it with a vengeance and pulled me off the dock into the water. The water there is only three feet deep right at the dock, but none the less rays sit there under the dock. Scariest moment ever while I've been fishing.
