Freshtrax Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) Anyone I'd the weird little fish. Some thing killed it and dropped it near my buddy's farm pond. About 4 inches long. Got a weird tail on it Edited March 31, 2020 by Freshtrax Sp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickingfrog Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 It'd be nice to see the true shape of the tail. I was thinking a small snakehead but wouldn't put any money down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Looks to me like a baby bowfin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave524 Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 As a kid we found a few of those in rural ditches that you never would have suspected a fish could survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Enwinde Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 First time I saw one in my bait bucket I chucked it in the bush for fear of unleashing a baby bowfin on a little brookie lake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
