Chrisb Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Looks like a carp. Is it in a public park where people could be feeding it regularly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ron4blues Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 I've seen koi do that, and a friend of mine had two huge oscars in a tank that insisted on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerchly Posted August 8, 2013 Report Share Posted August 8, 2013 Looks like a drum , top of head/dorsal too sharp for a carp . I have many times seen people laying walleye on the underside of their arm . It seems to paralyze them and they stay motionless . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
