Some fish are big, Recently, a fish was sighted on the coast of Oregon,

 “Beachgoers were stunned when a massive, 7-foot-long (2 meters) fish with a round body, huge fins and bulging eyes washed up along the coast of Oregon.”

This fish’ is a hoodwinker sunfish (Mola tecta). It was 2.2 metres or 7.3 long and is one of the largest bony fish in the world.
