there's been similar stuff in the news around here and the outer banks about volitan's being spotted, not a good thing when there's no natural predators in this area.....

This was in National Geographic about a year or two ago. They thought the fish was accedently relaesed when Florida got hit with a big storm.
Angels are also found here on the east coast (RI) when the warm ocean currents come this way. I know a guy who has caught some here last year.:yes:
