Snakehead

[JD7.62]

I beleive you are thinking of Mud fish a type of burbot in Florida, they do look like a snakehead but are native and not imported like the snake head.

"Mudfish" aka bowfin, dogfish, grinnel, grindel - Amia calva, are a fish native to the US and Canada east of the rockies inlcuding right here in KY. They are similiar in habits and feel the same niche as channa. However, Amia calva have been on Earth MUCH MUCH longer then Channa.

I caught a 6lb plus grinnel out of Reelfoot lake once and that thing was uggggggly! I didn't even want to bring it in the boat as it was scaring my wife, lol.
