Fish ID

While at work at the City Marina I saw this fish being pushed out by the tide coming out of the culverts from the lake across Lockwood Dr. It was dead and it was just about low tide so I could not get a better picture.

What the heck is it?

Some sort of eel:question:

It was about 18"-20" long and 1.5" diameter. And had a nice set of teeth on it.

No matter how many variables I have control over, I never expect a bite. I only hope.

dead eel

Forget what they are called but it is a invasive predator from the dead sea. I think they have glass or mirror in there name and they are real shiny when alive and look like they got a series bite. The water is so hard to survive in that most of the species that live there can survive in many other places, the salinity is so high many species have greater abilities to regulate salt intake and usage allowing them to go from the 30%+ salinity to a lot lesser. They opened the dead sea for trade years back and now the fish are popping up all over the world.
