They seem to be willing to eat anything that comes from the water....raw.

If it doesn’t moo, oink, or crow, I’ll pass.

I was informed by a fishing partner that these were bad tasting. I had one at the boat and released it.
Hmmmm.

In our area they are tan to brown in color. Not plentiful, but not rare either.

Although it sounds like science fiction, you don’t have to leave planet earth to find transparent creatures, electricly-charged creatures, and luminescent creatures. How anyone can believe that these creatures happened by chance is beyond me.
And yes, the ocean sunfish is one of my favorites. It looks like a fish that’s been cut in half.
