Story: A rainbow trout fished out of Holmes Lake in Lincoln, Neb., on Dec. 17, 2005, features a double mouth. Clarence Olberding, 57, of Lincoln, wasn't just telling a fisherman's fib when he called over another angler to look at the two-mouthed trout. It weighed in at about a pound. Olberding, who plans to smoke and eat the fish, said the hook was in the upper mouth, and that the lower one did not appear to be functional.
He said in his 40 years of fishing, he's never seen anything like it.

Don Gabelhouse, head of the fisheries division of the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, said a two-mouthed fish was new to him, too.
"It's probably a genetic deformity,'' he said. "I don't think there's anything wrong with it.''

I question the logic of this person eating that fish. It's like eating a beef from a Mad Cow.

BTW- Why do they call it PMS?

Because Mad Cow Disease was already taken:D

Obviously this is the new "Nebraska" turbo trout that I've been hearing about. Note the enhanced water intake and chin spoiler. When hooked, zero to 60 mph in under 6 seconds :D ... :sorry:

Soon the snaggers on the SR will be saying, "I got 'em right in the mouth!" And their buddy will say, "Which one? The mouth by the dorsal fin? Or the mouth growing out of his tail?"

I would like to name him "chops"

I caught a salmon once with that same affliction. It was on an eggsack, "lower mouth" http://www.stripersonline.com/ubb547/graemlins/cwm31.gif

I caught a salmon off the wall in Osnago about 10 years ago that had his lower jaw locked down and out. I guess I really did line that one! But it was hooked "right in the mouth". After yellin' fish on, coming down, coming up, and finally, get the net (with a 20' long hadle), he was mine............Ahhhh the good old wall.............:D
