:) While the whale shark is the largest fish in the ocean, it is not a true fish-it does not not have a bony skeleton and therefore is not a teleost-the true or bony fish!!! The honor of the largest true fish goes to the bluefin tuna, which can attain lengths of up to 12 feet!!! Best known for their high priced flesh in the sushi market, this fish is an important recreational and commercial species!!! it is also quite a travler, swimming thousands of miles every year on its migratory route ;) :cool:

Aren't fish those swimming things that are supposed to attach themselves to my line? :confused: <br /><br />I heard about these "fish" but have not actually caught any. :mad: <br /><br />I have however, spent lots of time & money in the pursuit. :)
