There has been a very strange fish caught off the coast of Burgeo, here in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
I’ve never seen anything like it. Does anybody know what it is?
Update Via Bond Papers: Identified.
Triplewart seadevil (Cryptopsaras couesii) – Pêcheur à trèfle, found frequently in the delta of the St. Lawrence Seaway, not far from Burgeo.

Flounder?
Not sure. One ugly flounder if it is.
Sure looks like an anglerfish, as per Bondpapers sujjestion.
sunfish?
