are those the ones that grunt? (another specie nicknamed "dogfish", it grunts,or barks,like a dog)

LBH, this is the species I'm talking about. They do grunt every now and then.

Geez that is one ugly fish

Now according to the article it is the first fish in space?

Depending on where I fish

 Gar, Carp, and what we used to call perch ( drum everywhere else )

Catfish ( aka the officially sanctioned fish of rednecks ) are a pain in the but to mess with and just not that much fun to catch they do have some weight so sometimes ok

Drum. Yuck. They slime up everything.  :-X

pinfish suck. you cant eat them and you have a 90% chance of getting stuck.

skate and stingrays. skate wont sting ya but they still suck. you think you got a nice flounder the bam you got junk.

eels. wrap up twenty feet of line and destroy your leader. regardless of what it is made of. steel leaders are no match for the eel. they do a good job of making them look like a steel leader curlyfry.

oyster toad fish and alligator gar

Little baby gators.  Constantly chasing my topwaters.  Gators to about 3 feet have no fear of man and wont leave lures alone.

Personally, I wouldn't mind if they sent every last one to space.  :-/

That reminds me of when I was really little and I used to fish off this dock/gazebo thing in the intracoastal. I would use things like hotdogs and bubble gum for bait and would actually have fun catching pinfish, stingrays, pigfish, catfish, and oyster toad fish. My dad hated it because he used to be the one to take all these nasty fish off my hook!!

saltwater catfish because of there poisonous whisker things

What is my least favorite fish to catch?

A largemouth bass weighing 22 lbs 4 oz  >
