I'd never heard of a Hairy Frog Fish...
One was shown on some pbs program I happened to see... it is way beyond anything Spielberg or Lucas ever thought of... (IMHO)
(in the program the fish was fishing, using a lure it has on the top of its head... it also looked a lot more like a feathery plant than a fish... )
Take a look at these pictures and tell me what you think... (It's a few fish down)

I think they are called angler fish. I've seen them when diving but never in action. I've learned not to touch anything on the bottom. Seems like everything is not what it seems and bites!!!
I've been on a bunch of cruises and get people to stare over the edge and just watch for a few minutes then all of a sudden we run through a school of flying fish and they come up out of the water and fly off until out of site. Nobody believes me until the actually see them. |

| They sit on the bottom and wiggle that one tentacle. When another, smaller, fish swims up to it... Well, that's lunch. |
