It's a longnose chimaera.  Can be found as by-catch when fishing deep in may parts of the world.  Pretty rare, but not so unusual. Or so says the interwebs.

Fish laugh when I paddle by.  Sometimes they laugh so hard they fall on my hook.

But the question on everyone's mind is...Is it tasty?   :smt044 :smt044

Looks pretty funky, I think I will let Big Jim eat it first and report back.    :smt005
If you ain't first, you're last.
