Barrel eye fish mainly feed on small fish, squid, and crustaceans like shrimp. Their diet also includes zooplankton and jellyfish. They are ambush predators, using their unique barrel-shaped eyes to help spot and capture prey in the deep ocean.
Another name for the crappie is the perch or white perch. They are relatively easy fish to catch with hook and bait. They are a white fish and popular to eat. Due to their tendency to overpopulate their waters, there is a high bag limit. This makes them a popular fish for those who fish for sport.
A barreleye is a small, deep-sea fish of the family Opisthoproctidae, with barrel-shaped tubular eyes which are generally directed upwards to detect the silhouettes of available prey.
Some fish that are known to eat butterfly fish include groupers, snappers, barracudas, and lionfish. These predators may hunt butterfly fish for food due to their small size and bright coloration that make them easy targets.
when a cowboy used a shotgun too kill a flock of birds at close range, he said "like shooting fish in a barrel" most likely, because shooting fish that can't move much anywhere can be shot easier then fish in the ocean.
It originated from when two men were having a shooting contest. They each said what each other had to shoot. Number 1 said to shoot a bird in a tree and Number 2 said to shoot a fish in a barrel- thinking that it would be very hard. Apparently- shooting fish in a barrel was incredibly easy! This was because the vibration of the water ,once it was shot ,was enough to kill the fish in it! EG: Doing a somersault is like shooting fish in a barrel. It means that something is very easy! While the above answer may be possible, it seems a bit unlikely to me. Prior to the days of refrigeration, fish were packed and stored in large barrels. The barrels were packed to the rim full of fish. As such, any shot the entered the barrel would be guaranteed to hit at least one of them. This being the case, nothing would be easier than shooting fish in a barrel.
The phrase "fish in a barrel" originates from the notion of an easily achievable target. It likely dates back to the 19th century, where it was used to describe the simplicity of shooting fish confined in a barrel, making them an easy target for hunters. This metaphor has since evolved into a colloquial expression used to convey situations where success is almost guaranteed due to the lack of difficulty involved.
If you think about this, you can figure it out. If fish are trapped in a barrel, how could they get away from a gun? It means something is ridiculously easy.
