Big fish caught

This is one of those images of hooked fishes that reminds me of the fact that if I were ever in the position of reeling one of these beasts in, I would most likely find myself swimming alongside them (after being pulled off the boat). Chinese fishermen hook an 8 ft. long 750 lb. [via] Rockcod looking thing. Hearing these types of figures wouldn’t be at all surprising if it were a giant Tuna or Sailfish, but this thing looks like some kid’s assumed dead goldfish flushed down the toilet.

    Looks shopped to me, as it seems to look like a regular fish, only 10 times bigger.

    I agree totally. Especially the shadows around Nemo and its perspective look faked.

    @ Guy and Akeem

    I think I may be with you on this one, upon closer review the eyes look a little questionable (some pixelation and doesn’t look like the correct lighting) as do the white “snow” spots on the fins.. A little to round and defined as well as a little to crisp.
