Default Re: One fish a day thread

Lets start with the Hakes!

Not well know nor of too much value. I actually have this species as one that I submitted the photo to fishbase since they didn't have many images. One study I found off of Virginia found most fish between 500-700 meters(500meters=1600Ft)

Longfin Hake

when I took the photo during a bottom trawl survey(2008)-I didn't realize that bottom fin- which is very fine- was just as important in identifying the fish as the top fin.This is a link to Joe Kunkel's webpage. He's a UMASS professor with tons of ship time and images.
