+Gosffo Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 This is a slang word for something, I don't know what! I googled it and a bellfish is a croaker or drum fish. But I'm almost sure that's not what I want. For example a polecat is a skunk. It's a name people use for slang! So, does anyone out there have an idea for what a BELLFISH is??????? Link to comment
+JMBella Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Get it? Bellboy, BellFISH... oh nevermind. Link to comment
+Gosffo Posted February 15, 2005 Author Share Posted February 15, 2005 I guess this question was harder than I thought! I need it for a contest. I know it has to do with the outdoors and I was sure someone would know! We as cachers spend so much time outdoors. Well, I guess not enough! I'm almost sure I can't use the bell boy thing! Thanks for trying! At least you tried! Thanks! Link to comment
+webscouter. Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 I wasn't going to reply because I don't know for sure and the spelling I have for it is different but a billfish is "an easy mark" Link to comment
+Sparrowhawk Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 I have a gut feeling that whatever it really means, it's probably not safe for a family forum. Kinda like a certain insult word used in the TV series "Red Dwarf". I won't repeat it, but one day a long time ago I found out what it meant, and gaaaaawwwwd.... I WISH I could have that concept and that word surgically removed from my brain! EWWWWWWW! Link to comment
+Team Perrito Blanco Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 I did a Google search and came up with this as the first return. Link to comment

+Gosffo Posted February 17, 2005 Author Share Posted February 17, 2005 Thanks again for the help! I'm sure we haven't gotten it yet! And I am almost sure it is not anything bad! It's just some kind of slang for an animal or maybe even a fish! I've written down both answers and will add it to the google I got, about the groaker. I just can't believe no one knows for sure!!!!! Thanks to all again! Keep thinking!!!! Link to comment
+Team Perrito Blanco Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 The first link from Google said the following: "This long legged, aquatic, silvery insect can be found swimming around islands, sucking on fish. In groups they look like a mass of shimmering orbs speeding through the water. It seems to have just a spherical head, no body, three legs and a tail sitting on top of his head. This gives it an unusual appearance and it is called therefore Bellfish." What's wrong with this? Link to comment
+Gosffo Posted February 17, 2005 Author Share Posted February 17, 2005 Yes, I got that one! I've written it down, but for some reason, I really think it's suppose to be an animal. Keep thinking! I have hope!!!!! I also believe it's native to Pennsylvania. I got to go check if yours is native to Pa. Thank You! Link to comment
