[ATTACH=CONFIG]62598[/ATTACH I caught this fish at the Sebastian Inlet it has black and white pectoral fins and black and white dorsal fins. It had a large "u" shaped mouth with teeth. I never caught one before and have no clue. I am a calling it a mini whale shark with teeth.

Its a Northern Stargazer. Be careful as they can shock you.

I am going with souther stargazer and I did feel some tingling in my hands when I tried to remove the hook.

Ranger Ed Perry in Sebastian Inlet says they are better eating than flounder.

Stargazer is correct.

If it's cloudy out....what does he look at?

Southern Stargazer. They can give a nasty shock, especially underwater.
A few pictures I have taken of them.
