I think in the Carolina s , they call them ground mullet.

Kinda like we call a cobia a ling, a kingfish is a king mackerel, a vermillion snapper is a beeliner.

Don t even get started on LY s or alewives,pilchards,greenies,whitebait,chubs,chophe rs,pinfish,etc.

In NC at least around Cape Hatteras, they call them sea mullet. It has been so long since I'd heard it I had to google it lol.

Good eating fish! Those are nice sized also, congratulations on the catch.

Yep, we call them mullet. Good eating and good for cut bait. Few years ago I caught a cooler full in the surf by the Avalon pier. Fried them up nice and crispy, delicious! Nice catch!

Well, best laid plans, etc

Beautiful sunrise , light offshore breeze, no one on the beach

But no fish . . .

Phat, that's fine, you know that's why they call it fishing and not I'm going catching. You hit the beach, had yourself a peaceful day, who's better than you, NO BODY.
ENJOY
