Caught a Bowfin

[Rider]

So Saturday was opening day for Bass season so like any good fisherman my son and I went fishing. Aside from catching some Bass, some Northern Pike and some blue gill(used as live bait for the pike) I caught one of these ugly ass fish. I thought it was a Snakehead as I've never seen one before but it turned out to be a Bowfin or sometimes called a Dogfish. It put up a hell of a fight and lived out of water for 30 minutes before I could identify him and threw him back in the water.
