What did you say? I'm hard or herring. But I'll try to answer for the halibut, but it's no fluke that this could be a whale of an answer. Seriously folks....I'm a fresh water guy and that fish looked like a sucker (no jokes here), but since the mob boys were involved in the fish markets most likely it was a cod. Has that cod look to it even though you don't get a good look at the head. Cod damn that was some fish.
