Long toms

[poacher]

Anyone ever see these -not bad to eat but bony

I caught something similar in Thailand and someone told me they called them Crocodile Needlefish or something. They hid in the reflections of the water surface - quite a good way to hide! They were so flexible that unless you shot it through the head they could find a way to bite you!! Loads of thin bones but tasty - must be the same thing.

Our Garfish have a Beak which has no teeth but a Longtom has has lots of teeth on its elongated jaws -However some people call them alligator gars or needle fish.
