WARNING OF FISH THREAT FOR PEOPLE VISITING GALWAY BEACHES
Date Published: 10-Aug-2010
The small, sandy-coloured fish spends most of its time buried in the sand with only its venomous black dorsal fin visible.
The new moon today [10/8] and Spring tides mean that swimmers and surfers will have to go further out to the water - where more weever fish are found.
Irish Water Safety warn that one danger from a sting is that it can cause anaphylactic shock or allergic reaction.
