What is it. I'm guessing a snapper of some sort. Caught in 900' of water. It had the exact shape of a sac au lait.

Longtail bass

The dorsal looks like a hog but pelvic is atypical.

I googled long tail bass and it says the Alabama state record is 5lbs. I swear that fish has to be close huh?

I would say it was pushing 5 lbs. It was caught on an electric reel though.
