Went up the river on hubbard sunday and was catching alot of Long fish with blackish spots on their tail and they had alot of small teeth. It looks like a Bowfin but i dont see anything that says those are native to that river. Is that what they were? I know alot of people have caught these cause it seems like thats all i could pull out of the river.

Sounds like bowfin to me. They are indeed on Hubbard, as the lake record is 7.6 lbs or so.
