Never seen this

I caught a fish on Darbonne this afternoon that had something attached to it. It was alive and looked like an eel. Anybody ever seen this?Attachment 298836Attachment 298837

Looks like a Lamprey. Have caught several in seine nets in the Pigeon River in East Tennessee while conducting Ecology Field trips. I think the species found here is the Mountain Brook Lamprey.

Definitely a lamprey. Ouachita river is full of them. First time I have ever heard of one in the lake. Cool!

Yep ! It’s a lamprey and I have caught several bass with them attached like this on D’Arbonne.

I have caught several fish that had bite marks ... I wish the Bass would hunt them down

I caught one in darbonne a cpl yrs ago.

Caught a big sac from the calcasieu river that had one

Just seen this on the Animal Planet thats a Devil Fish. It sucks the blood out of its victims, common in South America so dont go swimming in the water up there if you dont want one to swim up your Ureather if you Pee in the water.
