WHERE DID YOU CATCH HIM AT OTHER THAN IN THE MOUTH 
THAT IS A STRANGE ONE THERE. I HVE BEEN FISHING THE OCEAN FOR A VERY LONG TOME AND NEVER SEEN ONE OF THEM BUGGERS.

The anal and dorsal fins resemble a mola mola but the caudal fin is not even close. Perhaps a juvenile mola? Would help to know what general area / depth it was caught.
