A rare fish catch has garnered attention from Texas Parks and Wildlife. The fish is a hybrid of two species, with characteristics from both. It was caught by a 19-year-old using common carp as bait. This catch is unusual, and scientists find it noteworthy.

The fish is part of an ancient family that has remained largely unchanged for millions of years. There are four native species of this fish family in Texas.

Further details about this catch are available, including the size of the fish and the reaction of the teenager who caught it.
