Stolt June 09

When a diver told me of a Monkfish near the wreck, I grabbed my bag and jumped in. Monkfish (aka goosefish) are not to be trifled with, but they are good eating if you know how to catch them. They can be quite large, and they have lots of sharp teeth. They are also covered in slime. This can turn out to be very gross if you're not careful. I don't have any u/w shots of the battle, but here's the beast I brought aboard.
