When the Mudcats git hungry enough - they'll eat 'em wings and all. (If the friggin' turtles don't get 'em first)

-Even if they have to grow they own wings to do it...

I saw a fishing show the other night a some guy caught one. He was raking thie serrated part on the top of its head, then he threw it back in. Catch and release.
I thought they were a salt water fish.

If they fly, you can use a fly rod to catch them or rename them skeet.

They aren't actually "flying fish", more like jumping fish. They are a type of carp that when aggitated by something like a boat motor will jump out of the water to attack whatever is making the noise. Saw it on TV a couple days ago. The things would actually jump into the boats. It was crazy. And they were big fish too.
