Very odd baitfish...

In the shallows around Jamestown. Blue backed fish with VERY large pectoral fins. It MIGHT have been barred, not to sure. ANy ideas what it could have been? 6-7" long.

Really looked like a flying fish.

Tie a string to it and run real fast: if it goes up, it's a flying fish it it goes down it's a stick!

Were there lots of them?

Get a bait net, sell them to canyon fishermen for $10 a piece live. Profit.

Going rate for live pogies up here is $100 a dozen live.

As a kid we used to see them out by the clam bake club all the time. Go back 25yrs or so.
