Working with fish can be a dangerous. As a child, I copped one on the chin by a rocketing tilapia when I swam in my grand uncle’s fish farm.
Fish are built to push through water and can reach speeds, and if large, it’ll be enough to give you a good knock.
Some have spines, amd some are venomous. Some have rather large teeth and large mouths that can really cause some damage.
Take care, and respect these wonderful animals.
