Easier to identify with pictures but it does sound like one of the aquuarium fish that has been dumped. There was a story like that in the magazine not too long ago. |

They catch sheephead around here frequently (freshwater) and there are some people that eat them. As for me, I've never tried them and I've never noticed them having babylike teeth and I guess that is because I never bothered to look down their throat. |

Contact your local Game and Fish. they will probably be able to identify it. |

Could have been a Pacu. These cousins to the Parhana eat lots of fruits and stuuff that fall from the trees in south america. They get dumped into our lakes by people after they get to big for their aquariums. |

I don't know what a pacu looks like, but they are often dumped in ponds or lakes. A friend of mine has caught a couple. So its possible its a pacu. But I don't know. |
