Hi Joe
In case your readers are interested in seeing a 30 second video of a classic (and common) Mola Mola or Ocean Sunfish. As you know they are a remarkably odd fish. This one was just a few miles outside the harbor.

Very interesting looking fish–thanks for posting!

One of the first times in a boat off Woods Hole, maybe 1970 I saw one of these things. As big as a piano and about as weird looking sunning herself as we circled. I thought, “wow there are weird fish around here they must be common”, and have not seen one since.
Not for lack of trying. Seen a lot of weird things in the ocean but only one of those.

Yes the do get quite big. This one was probably about 200lbs. Here is some interesting background on ocean sunfish. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_sunfish
