Do Aliens inhabit the Red River?

Yup...that's one crazy kitty. It was caught by Big Shanon B...The SumoHunter. Fought well, and just about made me jump back when I seen it. Looked like something out of the movie Alien.

Head-Butt too many rocks and there ya go

Ya wonder how those retired pro boxers feel.

He appeared to have just have off the nest too...so somebody loves him.

If there is love for Ol Quasimodo there...there may be hope yet for me.

LOL!

Whats the saying "a mug that only a mother could love" Talking about the fish of course.

It's a Carpfish, half carp half catfish, that thing is strange.

Wow, that is goofy looking. Darren and I had a somewhat goofy-headed channel cat in the boat the other day but it wasn't ANYTHING near that goofy! That's neat, thanks for the cool pics.

That's the second mutant I have seen this year. I caught a pike with a head that was angled downward. Yours is much more prominent though. What a cool fish, thanks for sharing. Maybe we'll see a subspecies evolve out of it.

That by far is the wierdest cat I've ever seen.

It is straight out of Dr Suess, or the Simpsons.

Thanks for sharing.

Looks like the river is yet polluted with chemicals,kinda like 5 legged frogs.

Some type of trauma when very young is likely the reason for this malformation. I have seen catfish with broken backs that grow to 20 plus pounds, and shaped live a V, and yet hearty as a hog. Just go's to show you how adaptable and tough they are.
