A North Carolina man couldn't believe his eyes when he caught a fish with teeth like human beings.
Nathan Martin of South Mills went fishing at Jennette's Pier, a favorite fishing location, with the intent of catching a sheepshead fish.
Eventually, Nathan caught one, but as he reeled in the fish, he was startled to see the creature seeming to smile at him and showing a mouthful of teeth.

In an interview with McClatchy News, Nathan recalled his moment of catching the toothy fish and mentioned that he baited it with sand fleas.
"It's a very good fight when you're fighting on the line, it's a really good catch, and it tastes very good," he explained.
Nathan added that he intends on mounting the sheepshead on the wall.
