What is it?

[jveselka]

Can anyone tell me what fish I have here. It looks like a rockfish but I am not sure. It was caught in Port O'Connor, Texas next to the jetties.
Thanks

LOL...Frankinfish...did you see that movie?
Also...welcome to the site but it isn't for catching SW fish but keeping them for pets.

I'll take a guess and say Ladyfish.
They got some nasty little teeth

It's a toadfish - probably Opsanus beta

I bet it tastes like chicken. Or to be exact a chicken sandwich from any local Hooters. Have you guys tried one of those??? They make me crazy. I usually don't eat chicken. SO maybe its all the TnA there that gets me in the mood. I mean you cant blame them. But I do usually refer to the place as a halfway house for strippers. They're either coming or going ya know. Anyway cook that thing. Throw some Lowreys SALT on it. And get back to us. I cant wait to hear the results.
