twilson615 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Looks like a white perch to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 My guess is juvenile blue runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PENN King Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 That's definitely a baby blue runner. Â All I use is Penn, Zebco Brands and Tibor Fly Reels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregwa Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 my buddy dives and has a few spots he goes and catches tropical fish...yes folks tropical fish in Mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 What type of tropical fish and how far south? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buz23 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Looks a like a blue runner, but I think the eye is too big and the tail isn't "hard" enough. And the arch in the lateral line is too long in comparison to the pectoral fin. Â Possibly a horse eyed jack juvie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergal Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Peanut bunker? You might as well say white perch then.... Â I've always called them 'scads'. Not sure if they truly are but usually see them every summer. They make a damn good fluke bait. ASMFC - Destroying public resources and fisheries one stock at a time since 1942.
