A rare barndoor skate, which I caught while cod fishing on the Bunny Clark out of Ogunquit, Maine, on 8/25/2009. This fish weighed 26 lbs and put up quite a fight. We took photos and weighed the fish, then released it. (Bunny Clark Capt. Tim Tower is unhooking the fish, which took a 16 oz. jig on the bottom.) This rare catch happened on Jeffreys Ledge, nearly 25 miles off the coast in the Gulf of Maine.
