could this be a possibility? Red band fish.

Not quite, look at the smooth belly, no fins on the belly. Its a Ocean Pout.

I agree 110%. There's no way I would throw somethig like that back in the water. I'd put it on ice and call the game warden.

Thats a great plan ....'till you find out its an endangered dork fish and get to pay a 50,000,000 dollar fine for the dang thing!
