    Default Can you help identify this fish?


    Hi folks. I caught this fish in Chocolate Bayou in Texas. Any idea what this fish is? It is brackish water and I regularly catch redfish and big blue cats, alligator gar, mullet and blue crabs. It is fresh and salt water. I have caught bluegill also. Thanks!

    Welcome from Louisiana. I agree with the above, post this on the Texas and Louisiana boards

    x2 We catch them in Florida creeks and rivers. They love shrimp. Fish on bottom with a piece of shrimp, should catch plenty.
