magicwormman Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I need a little help to identify this fish/rock. My wife found this on our property off Y highway. It sure looks like a petrified fish, but feels like a rock. I've never seen anything like it in my lifetime. I would love to find someone who could tell us what it really is. Thanks for any input you may have. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtrs5kprs Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Petrified fish looks like a possibility. Maybe a native artifact of some sort? Was that area under water during the 2011 flood? On a side note, are you still pouring plastic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*T* Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Nice! Any real detail that makes you believe it's a petrified fish? What are some dimensions? Would probably weigh real good in a tourney if legal length. "Water is the driving force of all Nature."Â -Leonardo da Vinci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtrs5kprs Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Question about the water level is due to evidence of changes in water level causing "mummification" with respect to human remains. Seems plausible at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishinwrench Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Looks like a fish shaped cabnet or drawer handle. You sure it's not metal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magicwormman Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 Yes, I'm still pouring plastic, when I'm not working on the new house. My fishing time has drastically diminished since I started building our dream home. The rock/fish is just over 7 inches and weighs about 14 ounces. It feels just like any other rock...............but sure looks like a fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
