Weirdest fish you have ever caught... (photos please!)
« on: November 26, 2013, 04:27:15 PM »
I'm liking the biggest fish thread.  How about photos of the weirdest fish you have ever caught?  And lets see photos!

I speared some hog fish in the Florida Middlegrounds a few years back.  I think this one takes the cake for me.

....I snagged a beaver once...
catch it. kill it. cook it. eat it.
Forget the bear spray, use wasp killer. Concentrated delivery stream, 10X the product, and only $3.00 on sale.

I smoke two fish in the morning, I smoke two fish at night, I smoke two fish in de afternoon makes me feel alright

Not a competition!  Just want to see weird fish folks have caught. 

What is that one?  some kind of flounder?

Can't say I have any weird fish to brag about, but did see a rainbow trout taken out of one of the bayous in No. Louisiana.  How it survived the water temps no one could figure.  May have been washed down from Ark. in high flood water.

hey now...

Odd about the trout.  I was in Cabo once and they brought a king salmon in on one of the boats.  I gues thats not totally unrealisic, but he must have been a little turned around.

This is a snakehead I caught in the Everglades. They can live out of the water for long periods of time. This one was about 2.5 feet long.

A few other weird fish I caught are, a good size Blow Fish and a Seahorse.

I was a commercial fisherman for awhile in Cape Cod, MA. I caught a pretty big Seahorse with a hand net during Scallop season one year.
