[QUOTE="Aussie fella, post: 1520879, member: 106262"] They aren't quite the deadliest in the world, the lion or scorpion fish depending on where you are and who you're with has a deadlier neurotoxin, however the stone fish is more camo coloured and harder to see, they generally don't go out of their way to hurt you, but as you said hang around in rock pools, and are difficult to spot so people do stand on them from time to time. I would be more fearful of blue ringed octopus, irukandji (a seriously nasty often deadly jelly fish, the most venomous in the world ), crocs and sharks, in the northern Australian waters. I'm pretty sure more people die or are hospitalised from irukandji stings than any other sea critter. But nice catch, cause it is pretty rare to catch a stone fish. [/QUOTE]
