Back in the 90s, my father-in-law’s brother-in-law came from CA to OK to visit. My FIL took him fishing and told him they would get some bass. The BIL caught a carp and my FIL told him it was a “bugle-mouth bass” as he took a photo to remember the occasion. The BIL was a part-time bar tender in CA and posted his fishing photo behind the bar so he could tell his big fish story to all of his customers. He was really irritated with my FIL when one of his customers finally clued him about the carp.

Maybe I’m crazy, but when I see a fish like that I figure it’s chock full of worms.

My dad calls them “whistling trout”.
