Nice-looking ling cod. Could you keep it?
Halibut and flounder are in the same family, I think.

1) halibut are a flat fish in the ssme family as flounder and sole, but they have a much better flavor and texture than either of the two. 2) the crazy looking creature is a wolf eel. They have a crushing bite, you don't want to get your fingers near their mouth.

Beat me to it waggler. My question is this, being as they look like an eel are they tasty table fare? Not the halibut of course.

Looks like a great time. Nice bear and the last pic is exactly why I don’t swim in unfamiliar waters. Good grief

Southeast Alaska, in my case out of the town of Wrangell.

Waggler I figure because they make their living crunching crab they should be good to eat. A quick search turned up they are considered excellent somewhere between Dover sole and lobster. Looks like easy fillets. Really nice trip.

Looks like easy fillets. Really nice trip. My friend says about ten years ago he caught 3 on a fishing trip. Hasn't caught one since. Excellent eating he said it tasted like lobster. Showed me a picture of ones head nailed to a tree. Scares the heck out of kids he says
