Awesome...

you know it's pretty amazing if you really think about what your looking at and holding is a fish that has according to scientific hypothesis , changed only some in 60 million years... and arrived before dinosaurs some 300 to 400 million years ago.

We take kids to a museum to see the remains or recreations of prehistoric life...when we could just take them snagging to see and feel the real thing.

Awesome fish for sure.

All right, I'll ask. What is it?

Thanks Pappy. I've heard of them but never seen one.

And they're known for their caviar.
