Most of these are not really unusual, but they are taken with weird perspective, are deformed due to rapid decompression, and their skin is badly damaged. For example #23 seems to be a black scabbardfish [0], which is a very common food fish in western europe, and you can find it in many fish markets. And #35 is just a regular john dory. What do people find bizarre about this? I guess this is the sort of stuff that you are expected to find in any trawling trip.
