Wow thats cool! There is a fish story to tell for sure.. I knew they were pretty harty fish but thats crazy.. Reminds me of about 4 years ago I was fishing at onieda and caught a couple nice small mouth decided to cook them up there and just threw the head and such back in the water thinking I would feed the other fish and crayfish. Later that day ended up catching one of the heads and after that didnt catch another fish that day.. bet that sucker would have been a good.fight if it still was intact..

i guess your right it does sound far fetched if i hadn't seen it with my own eyes and had witnesses i probably wouldn't believe it either but who cares if you guys do or dont thanks for looking anyway

That sucker has been dead for some time. When their eyes are cloudy like the one in the pics that is a sign that it is dead. Nice try though.

Jaredhamp, Boy what a fish story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1. It doesn't have enough muscle to swim any longer.
2. The shock to the body of being filleted would have killed the fish.
3. The particular blood vessels cut would have caused it to bleed to death.
4. A terrible bacterial infection would have set in by now if the fish was really alive and it is absent in the picture.
5. The eyes are sunk into the head indicating they have dessicated (dried out).
6. When in shock a fish doesn't eat.
Nice try but no buy da' story guy.

Ive scene catfish swim off after being fillet and same with a carp. Ive scene stranger things then this.. I can believe it would happen. Ive caught carp that have had holes from arrows all over them.. Caught trout from twin lakes that had big gouges from props . And suckers are pretty harty fish.. There like a carp you can leave them out of the water for hours and kick them back and they will swim away..
