I just got back from a fishing trip in Mexico(excellent largemouth fishing) and when I looked in the bowl this am something really close to that was floating down the drain. Now I am afraid to go home.

These animals were predicted in The Abyss. Just not so quite laid back.

Thanks for the thread, amazing creature.

I was reading on another site that there are two possibilities. One is it is some species of jelly fish that went too deep and the pressure messed it up. Second is that it might be innards from a harvested whale or shark.
None the less, completely bizarre and hypnotic at the same time.

Up close, it looks like a fishing net design. Probably has critters (jellyfish, for one) trapped in it. Looks like it might have an eel, too.

If it is in the Gulf of Mexico maybe it is a Jellyfish that is suffering from the "...2 million gallons of toxic dispersants were sprayed into the Gulf, which may be making waters more toxic for species.

That’s no animal. That’s my son’s dirty sheets. I wondered where he put them.
