Fish With Shoulders

Now where the heck did that phrase come from?

Its one of those things that just doesn't sound right. Brings to mind a deformed striper I caught on Lake Powel once. It had a huge stairstep in its forehead.

Somebody says "that fish has some shoulders" and I get visions of toxic waste and unusual radiation producing bizarre mutants. Sure we got Swampthing and Spiderman that we, but we also got "The Creature from the Black Lagoon."

It may be ok for the X-Men, but I prefer my fish to have fins and scales.

Bob,

That's an old phrase to describe the fight of a flathead catfish.
