The fish is a Toothfish. Thought to be extinct for several million years, fisherman caught one in the 70's and since then scientists have been finding them more and more.

That my friend is a freshwater shark, they reside mainly in the Rio Grande river and their primary source of food is illegal alliens along with the occasional deer or opposum that swim the river.

Yea, It's very rare that one comes up far enough to be caught. Kind of hard to figure how they do it without exploding. Must be a hell of long journey.

That is a striking similarity to a "backseat babe" from high school decades ago.

Your confusing the Rio Grande fresh water shark with its first cousin the land shark which is commonly known in Mexico as lachubacabra, they use their laser beam to blind goats after which they suck the blood from them.

The chupacabra comment got me to thinking about this...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popo_Bawa

Popo Bawa, also "popobawa", which means "bat wing" in swahili is a monster purported to live on the spice islands of Zanzibar. Its existence has not been documented. Variously described as either a ghost or ogre with a gigantic penis and bat wings. His presence is usually announced by the sound of scraping claws on their roof and a sharp, pungent smell. Different from other incubus legends, Popo Bawa only attacks men and only in their own beds, resulting in many men sleeping outside in streets or on porches after recent reported attacks. He attacks men as they sleep, overpowering them, holding their face to the floor and sodomizing them for up to an hour. Popo Bawa victims are mostly poorer residents on the island of Pemba, though other reports have also come from other islands and coastal Tanzania. The victims are threatened with repeated, and longer, sodomizations if they do not let their friends and neighbors know of their experience. It is thought the cause of the Popo Bawa appearing is the result of episodes of sleep paralysis.

It looks like a Wolf Eel to me. Just think if you ever fall overboard an Alaska bound cruise ship this is one of the critters that would be feasting on your carcass.

This thread reminds me of going fishing on 12 Mile Bayou near Shreveport LA.

I didn't catch a single thing normal humans would consider edible all day, but I caught an alligator gar, some kind of weird eel-looking thing and some prehistoric-looking fish before deciding drinking beer was more entertaining than fishing.

I learned that a long time ago.
