Story Summary

Late at night on the waters off the coast of Florida, a man casts his net towards what he thinks are two mullets but discovers too late that he has netted a 1000 pound manta ray. Before he can get the slip knot off his wrist he is pulled overboard and into a life and death struggle, that if he looses, will find him pulled out to sea.
