Cheesejawa Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 What about a flounder? They are kind of similar in shape and fresh water. :-? http://www.niwa.cri.nz/rc/freshwater/fi ... k_flounder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 they are just about as hard to find as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesejawa Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 they are just about as hard to find as well But you can find them though. :lol: Acording to this map from the link above they are found in a few costal regions. Hardly many areas north though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David R Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Hmm flounder or these... Somehow the patterns on the flounder just don't quite measure up, not to mention their crooked freaky looking faces! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
