An "Angler" is a fisherman. This article should be titled "Angler fish".

No, angler fish is any fish in the order Lophiiformes, so I used the scientific name. Gdr 10:36, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Size?

[edit]

According to the source referenced in the description, female monkfish matures between 73.2–98.0 cm length, so the claim abut size is curious. There have been 180 cm monkfish weighing over 100 kg! I think that is relevant information, as this article makes it seem like it is smaller than the other monkfish, when in reality it is the largest known anglerfish. 212.97.237.8 (talk) 15:32, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
