Ok I caught this on the Loxahatchee River in Florida. I have no idea what it is and it is pretty mean looking. I asked the people at the canoe rental and they had never seen one. Any ideas?

Thanks guys! I'm 16 and was going up against about 50 other guys all with 20k plus bass boats. I put two keepers in the boat, but then running to my next spot i hit a floating tree that was submerged in the middle of the channel. It completely destroyed my gear case. I got towed back to our...
