I think that's the problem -- no teeth. Bonefish don't have teeth,
either, but I've never heard of anyone getting grossed out by one.


It's the sucker lips!


It's true. While Bonefish can totally slime a windshirt if you cradle one for
a photo-op, I've never had a problem with bones. Even big Bonefish mouths look
delicate compared to sucker lips. I get *really* grossed out if a sucker
catches my fly in the lip. Yucko!
