It may be a snakehead. You should check with your local DNR to find out.
Spent 8 hrs on the water today and if I caught something like that, I think Id club it and ask questions later...

Lucky for you, no one picked it up by its head. Stargazers have electric organs behind their eyes, that look like flat plates, which can give you quite an electrical shock. Stargazers usually bury themselves in the mud or sand with their head exposed waiting for a meal to swim by.
