Hi Art

Real monkfish or an angler?

Well done anyhow!

hey art hows it hangin and is it wrigglin :D nice mix of fish , i take it that pic was on a phone it,s not up to your usual standard but does capture your obvious exitment and as for the fag in your gob priceless :lol: i have a simillar pic with me and a nice starry smoothhound and must admitt the fag kinda spoilt the pic ,am gonna have a go at fluff chuckin for pollack over the next few weeks and if i dont manage to make a total show of meself i might head down and have a go at some of those tropical fish ye get down that way later on in the year SO be warned :roll: :wink:

kieran, twas deff. a monk( :shock: i think?) :) roger its not a fag 8) :) :) :wink:

Looks like an angler allright.
The Monk is a member of the shark family but look more like a skate than a shark and has it's mouth on the under side of it's body. It is also known as an Angel Shark.
The Angler fish is best ID'ed by it's extra large mouth and the "fishing rod" attached above it which it uses to attract prey.

:roll: :lol: :lol: :lol: party on dude 8)

I think I took that photo rodge!!! :D
