garfish
Long-snouted fish
A garfish is a long, slender fish with an elongated snout filled with sharp teeth, found in both freshwater and marine environments.
The name comes from the resemblance to a gar—an Old English word for spear.
Garfish are known for their bony, greenish flesh and are sometimes caught as game fish: We hooked a garfish off the pier.
