The following "thing" was captured on camera in Florida (east coast). It seems to have a flagellum-like tail instead of a regular fishtail.
Can anyone (marine biologist) ID this thing?
Thank you

Fishing lure. You can even see the fishing line at the end of the video.
I don't know if you're trolling and were actually pulling the line yourself.

The thing in question is below the lure. When the lure falls, there is a whitish thing that scoots away, make a big circle and then returns to its original resting place.

Thanks Cobalt... I'm going to try to see if I can capture it on video again... I know it's a long shot but this has really peaked my interest...
How is the fishing by the way?

my guess it is mostly a matter of perspective. The view from above shows the disparity between the body girth and a slender tail. I wouldn't say it i flagellum-like just appears so by comparison. based on the depth my first guess it is a jack knife fish or a spotted drum which would look very different from a side view yet have that appearance from above along with the exaggerated motion of the tail. Look them up in the peterson field guide. there are other possibilities like an eelpout.

@TheJigHQ Hi again. I was looking t the distribution of eelpouts so that can't be it. It looks like a large version of a juvenile hihat (tail vs body and shape from above along with the exaggerated tail motion) so that is why i guessed jackknife or spotted drum based on size or perhaps a large blenny like a hairy blenny or something.
