2. Neither have I, but it apparently exists:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodfish,_California

It would be interesting to know where the name came from.

3. Wiki says it was named after George Homer Bodfish, who sounds like an interesting dude:

4. From the wikipedia link...

"The place was named for George Homer Bodfish, who settled nearby in 1867"

Apparently no fish were harmed in the naming of this town
