Angler

3D Model

Lophius piscatorius weight: 105g length (full): 19cm length (standard): 16cm Photo set by: Daisy Burnell Construct by: Amy Scott-Murray Commonly known in Scotland as a Frog Fish or an Oof, in Denmark one of the more entertaining names is Bredflab. Although these fish are bottom dwelling and tend to sit an wait for potential food sources to be lured in by their “angler like” lure, there have been reports of this species eating small birds. It seems this is the case when they make biannual migrations which takes them close to the surface.
