They sometimes call it a goosefish, because it attacks wild geese, but the right name is fishing-frog or angler. It glides along the bottom until directly beneath where ducks are feeding, and when one dives for worms in the mud you know the way ducks go down the angler catches it by the neck and drags it down and then swallows it at leisure.
