Old ass fish.

Was he jigging a bottle of Ensure? Or maybe a Centrum Silver?

Hey you gonna eat that old head?!

nice.

Anyone here know which specie is it?  Could it be either a Verm or Yellow Eyes?

Looks like a Cow Cod to me look at the light darker colored stripes on its back

An the pectoral fins arent black on the tips

can you imagine what kind of descender you would need for something that big?

It's a shortraker rockfish.

Talk about bioaccumulation...

RIP old fish may your record be broken by a NCKA one day!

Now that's something to taxidermy  and wall-mounted. Talk about conversation piece.
