My first Pogge - that's Agonus cataphractus to you

I've been on the lookout for "panzerulke" as they're called in Norwegian, thinking it'd would be large and menacing when I'd find it. Not so. Not much bigger than my index finger I'd say it wasn't very much intimidating. It wouldn't even move! My buddy actually thought we were looking at a porcelain fish...

Anyway, here are two pics:





Regards,

Kyrre

Kyrre,

that is one ugly fish. Not even cute ugly. Just damned ugly. Looks like it should be a character in the Beano.

Agreed. Do you see them in your waters at all?

Here's another one. Unfortunately, the fish was too long for the framer of my 1:3 lens, so I cut its tail off (NB Do not take literally ) The close-up of its head is just a cropped version of the same photo. The fish is called skäggsimpa in Swedish - skägg means beard - and is closely related to the bullhead (= rötsimpa in Swedish).

Don't know what a Gurnard is but it's in the same family as Bullheads and other Scorpionfish, in other words Scorpiniaformes or something in that direction.

Edit: Yes, Eutrigla gurnardus, grey Gurnard is related to the Pogge
