North Australian FISH FINDER Forums

What weird things have you found in a fish's stomach?

Barramundi eat frogs and probably snakes and lizards, are they ever found in the guts?

Or are Top Enders filleting and releasing and therefore never seeing inside the guts?

Caught a Goldie in the harbour that had eaten a chicken leg I had thrown overboard about 5 minutes earlier. Couldn’t believe it could fit it in its stomach. The fish was only about 42cm.

Never looked

I've often looked but only found what you would expect, eg little fish, crabs, shell grit etc.

But without doubt the smelliest fish I've ever been near when it was opened up was a big maori sea perch.
