Hydrocynus Goliath African Tiger Fish (BLACK)? Aval?

Real nice don't look black to me? Maybe not black river?

To my knowledge the Gatf from the black river only turn black on the back and head like shown in the pictures.. like most predatorial fish it makes the fish undetedctable moving through the dark water when viewed from above but still keeps the lighter stomach areas so prey fish swimming below the Gatf wont be able to see differentiate the fish from the glare of the sun..

Pic of a Goliath caught by rod and reel on the black river..

that is the closest to a black tiger that i've seen besides the pictures in the book. that goliath does look differnt than the regular goliaths from the Congo as well...where did you find the picture and can you find more? I'm sure if we look hard enough in the fishing websites, and hardcore fisherman, there may be more pictures out there....
