I would have to agree, you couldn't eat it, but it's a waste for the big fella to die.

I am pretty sure this fish wasn't caught in 1985. It would have been caught during the mid 90's.

The honda accord and chev ute in the 4th photo down give proof behind my reasoning.

I mistook it for a blowfish initially. Easy mistake to make.
