Zombies are real!!!

That's some freaky bug. Replaced thatfishes tongue with himself.

that pic is part of the basis for the movie "the bay".

sea lice are frikkin icky.

that fish has a very nice & straight upper set of teeth......and that tongue zombie looks quit happy to be in there.
YIKKES!

Freaky scary! 

What is scary is that they aren't that uncommon in our waters.

I think Dino or John caught a fish that had one in its mouth up at GS7.

Sara wont go sand dabbing anymore after I took her out of MBK and they were FILLED with those things.   

What's really scary are the HUGE ones!   




 

Is it just me, or does that lice look like it's smiling?  I have found them living in the gills usually on lings.  Icky for sure.

San Dabs are full of 'em in Monterey Bay.  I hate those damn things.  They get in the yak & bite.

i've bought live Shinners and while they were being transported to launch(15min)in my bucket, they decide to abandon the host and begin to EAT the HOST!

What's really scary are the HUGE ones!   

exactly!
Hence why "The Bay" got me to watch it. What could be worse than an infestation of HUGE sea lice that ate people's tongues?!!!!
But overall the movie isn't very good .

One they get in the shiners gills its game over. 

Here's A pic of one falling out of A ling, Grace was releasing. A Check up of sorts 

Now that's LiveAction=YEEEYEEYEE....they must know the host is in trouble..... those smart lil things.
