new lake monster?

Postby BASSTRACKER » Mon Jul 01, 2013 8:00 pm

so we were fishing miki miki flats saturday mid morning. and this fish maybe 3ft long. easily in the 20lb plus class range swims by multiple times. looked like a giant black salmon. i know its not a salmon! there is one in that kids aquarium at the zoo. anyone know what it is? damn that thing was huge, my son pelted it with a variety of lures and doughballs but to no avail.

It's a nice size Pacu. Usually hangs out near Condo point.

dont think its a pacu, have seen them in the lake and they are more silver and rounder shaped. like a papio.this was shaped very much like a salmon with the same kind of head and was vary dark, nearly black. pushing 20 plus lbs about 3 foot long. longer and more of streamlined than any pacu i have seen. i know there is one in the aquarium in the kids section of the zoo, exact same fish but i dont know what it is. definatley not a catfish.
