I was down in Boca Grande, Florida walking on the mud/sand flats in the intercoastal. When I came upon this fish. It was tan on top and white under neath. It had black spots. I picked it up and it swung its head around to bite me. Mouth full of teeth! I put it down on the exposed mud and it pushed its finless hard pointed tail into the mud and start to disappear backwards, burrowing into the mud within seconds it was gone under the mud. I had noticed before the holes in the mud and the tunnels but I passed it off as crabs or something like that, I know different now. I carry a sketch pad with me when ever I go anywhere so I did a drawing of this fish....here it is
