This video is oxygen. It’s pure, you need it, and if you have too much, it will make you lightheaded. These Boston dudes took to the water and LOST THEIR DANG MINDS when they saw a sunfish. Here are the things they thought the sunfish was:

- A big sea turtle.

- A wheel (whale)

- An injured baby wheel (whale)

- A big flounder

- A big tuner (tuna)

- Some “s*** we ain’t never seen before”

These guys keep vacillating between deciding to help what they think is a sick fish, and hooking it for money and fame -- all while listening to Biggie. We love you, Boston fishing dudes ... never change.
