needlefish for certain

I 2nd That

When I catch and see these in Florida we call them houndfish. Try to steal shrimp when used for bait. Jump like crazy when hooked. Sometimes called needlefish too, but the larger ones always seem to be called houndfish and I have seen then from a foot to eighteen inches.

Routinely see a few daily about 40" long in 82 degree water where I am now.

wow, 40", their nose would make a good hand saw :uhuh:

Just FYI, Needlefish describes a family. Contains about ~40 species. Like posting a picture of a mackerel and calling it a tuna :)

From what I read I think that's it :uhuh: ⭐️

...and according to Wikipedia:

Needlefish

Needlefish (family Belonidae) are piscivorous fishes primarily associated with very shallow marine habitats or the surface of the open sea. Some genera include species found in marine, brackish, and freshwater environments (e.g., Strongylura) while a few genera are confined to freshwater rivers and streams, including Belonion, Potamorrhaphis, and Xenentodon.[1] Needlefish closely resemble North American freshwater gars (family Lepisosteidae) in being elongated and having long, narrow jaws filled with sharp teeth, and some species of needlefishes are referred to as gars or garfish despite being only distantly related to the true gars. In fact, the name "garfish" was originally used for the needlefish Belone belone in Europe and only later applied to the North American fishes by European settlers during the 18th century.[2]
