One time I was ice fising on Lake of the Woods in northern Minnesota, we drilled through 40 inches of ice to get to water, I lowered my bait and soon an eelpout swam up the ice hole and belched at me. Then he turned tail (literally) and swam back down the ice hole.

That's more wonderful than I could have wished for. I must visit and see if I can get them to spit at my camera.<br /><br />Dina, it's something with their gills and the configuration of their mouths. They also know how to aim through the refraction of light due to the water. The video is amazing.<br /><br />Hi Bogdan, welcome!<br /><br />Jean, the archer fish is an example of something I may never have known about if I didn't have a blog.
