It's a northern stargazer, I live 600 feet from the bay and have fished my whole life, and have seen them before.

No its not. Its a northern stargazer. I caught one last year; didn't know what it was, so I sent several photos to an ichthyologist at the University of Washington. Confirmed Northern Stargazer. Only found in the Atlantic off the Northeast States. They have minimal but definite electric potential.

actually, it is a baby monk fish, also called an ocean blowfish. I am a 5th generation bayman from southampton.
Poor fish, I hope you put him back!
