WTF!
As if sharks were not enough to worry about when you go swimming, now there are giant Dog Tooth as well.

That is an amazing fish, I wonder how many days it took to land?

Doors Off.

I reckon his arms might be a bit longer after landing that beast. :applause:

Dogtooth that size aren't actually caught by anglers as such. They wait in ambush and jump onto the boat when it slows to pull in a lesser fish. They then proceed to eat as many anglers as they can before sliding back overboard.

This one was obviously just having a bit of a kip before returning to the water when one of the survivors crawled out from underneath carefully lifting the tail in the process :roll:

Yup, xmas island is the place alright. Been busted up there bigtime with unstoppables. But that is a BIG doggie. Lyndoch Bank nth of Melville has them also. Got my 50 pounder there. You were probably there as well Pagey :grin:
