Artist's rendering.
The Goofangs are fearsome critters of lumberjack folklore from Wisconsin and Minnesota in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is described as a fish that looks like a large sunfish. It is also described as a type of bass. It has got very sensitive eyes, so it swims backwards to keep water out of them.
