Anyone know what kind of fish this is?
We were walking on the beach today and came upon seagulls picking at this and I'm just wondering if anyone knows what this is?

Re: Anyone know what kind of fish this is?
Can't argue with that.
Actually, it's one of two species of Lancetfish, per another ID request recently:

Re: Anyone know what kind of fish this is?
Anyone have any idea why so many of these have washed up on the beach lately?

Re: Anyone know what kind of fish this is?
These wash up every year, usually about this time. Not a bunch of them, but a handful are always reported in the spring.

Re: Anyone know what kind of fish this is?
I saw one of those on the beach at Florence two years ago....it was about 4ft long.
Never did find out what the name of it was.
