Sunfish Spotted Off Boothbay Harbor By Captain Gray
Captain Newall Gray found a huge ocean sunfish near Boothbay Maine, estimated around 600 pounds. He grabbed it with a boathook but the tough skin hindered his grip and the fish escaped after a brief struggle. The creature is mostly head with two large fins and little body, often floating on the surface to bask in the sun. Its diet relies on jellyfish found along the Maine coast and its liver yields oil prized for sprains and burns.
