Must have come up in a warm water eddy from the Gulf stream. He was only about 38 inches long but the jaw is almost 7 inches and full of razor sharp teeth. There were only two recorded catches here that year, mine and another, speared on a wreck dive. Caught mine on a trolled tuna rig. He came aboard flappin' and snappin'. I would have released him but he was gut-hooked and died so we cut him up for chum. They're not really fit to eat, though I hear some island people eat them. They really smell very strong and stinky. I was dusting a shelf and rediscovered the jaw today. Thought maybe some of you land-locked fellas might enjoy seeing it. Top pic is the inner surface, bottom is the outer. J.O'.
