I'd like to know too! I caught one of those a few years back when I was in highschool on a marine science field trip to S.Padre Island. I caught him with a net though. I can tell you that it's a bottom dweller.

that is a fish that has mutated over the years because of all the chemicals and harsh things in their environment. You guys remember that episode of the simpsons that the fish had 3 eyes. . . . sort of like that!!!! NO just kidding guys, i too have never seen this fish. LOOKS OOOGLY

I think that is a dog fish ? atleast thats what a fisherman told me when i cught one on the dike in texas city, he also said it is poisonis and can survive up to 4 hours or more out of the water? i am not saying its true but it was an old man. but i kinda belive him cause when we caught it we just flung it into the rocks and it would not die.
