"I'd seen many other jewfish out there before, but they acted normal. If you approached them, they kinda moved away," Charles said. "But this guy was weird. We was right next to me, like, 3 or 4 feet away, the whole time I was there," he said. "He was making this thudding noise they do, then all of a sudden he turned and hit me."

Seconds before the attack, Charles repotedly asked the fish "What am I.......chopped liver?"

When a jewfish gives you that "look" you can only imagine you are "chopped liver". These suckers are generally just as peaceful as can be, but I can tell you of at least a dozen times over a 15 year period that they gave me the "look" and made that booming noise, that I knew I was next on the dinner plate. The biggest one we ever shot on a trip was 780 pounds, he could have swallowed Shaquille O'Neal whole and had room left over for dessert.
