Sea Raven. When these come up in trawls they tend to be full of water. Not too many fish have this problem-it's like they just don't keep their mouth closed on their way up. It makes identifying their stomach contents a bit more difficult...even in both of the photo's they are full of water...
Biggest I've seen was about ten pounds. That's after the water in the stomach was drained out...
