I have no clue....that's why I was asking! Though I did like the halibut joke.

The first fish...The observer from NMF told us it was a Hagfish. (I know there is another hagfish).
The little/soft scales were gray/silver. It was missing most of the scales. That little skull like head was supposed to angle down. It had a soft mouth almost the size of a baseball. You can see where the skin was peeling away near the head. The skin was like a wetsuit. Very thick and rubbery. It was not a flat fish, though it was narrow.The spine and belly areas were very thin with the middle being about 16 inches thick. From back to belly it was about 30 inches. The handle/tail area was so big you had to put two hands around it.


The little fish on the bottom....I have no idea.

So we have some answers over at iFish. It is a Ragfish.

Here is a link to the other thread and another pic of a ragfish.

So Billy were you a regular at the Elbow Room?
I've fished Bristol for reds but never the deep blue Bering. I am crazy but not nuts. hahahaha
(Every time some one bitches about the price of crab I remind them of the dead men that helped supply the meal.)

So true.....I love that deadliest catch show on discovery.  Its probably hoolywooded, but still a good show to watch.

Dman:
 Gawd that's uglier than a chummer upriver... I don't miss deadliest catch ever, love that show.
