This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Welcome back Jackel!
You never know what you will pull out of the sea down there. I was talking to an old timer in Miami as he fished a small in-let from the ocean with a bobber and worm, and much to the surprise of the two of us, he pulled in a 12" Hammerhead. He said that was the first one he had ever caught in over 30 years.

Hey Jackel,

Welcome back to winter and thanks for sharing the pics. It looks like you didn't even want to touch that unknown fish just before the dolphin. I have no clude what that is. I thought it kinda looked like a Darter, however it's too big for one of those I think.

I tried looking it up in the Fish Encyclopedia, however had no luck. It's a little difficult to tell some of the features from the picture. Check out the online resources section of the site and click on the Fish Encyclopedia to give it whirl yourself. Perhaps you'll have better luck.

cheers,
