Now we're asking the right questions! Good to aim the board back
towards striped bass fishing. Trying to choose a good spot for my
annual late September one shot at the fall run, and it really helps
to have some idea what's actually going on out there (without spot
burning, obviously). Really appreciate it, guys!  |

Damned if I can tell the difference..
Got this online for anchovy’s

Which reminds me, not that we’ve been out to dinner in months but remembering The last several times I asked for anchovy’s on Caesar salad they were white and I think canned in water,,,, what happen to the dark colored ones you could smell across the room?

Not a bait expert by far, but we used to seine for silversides/spearing...or our generic term, minnows way back when I was child.
As an inquisitive boy, I would try to identify the many different species of fish caught in the net. Dad would deep fry them and we'd eat em' like fries.
The shape of their head may be the better way to distinguish them...although I believe the anchovy has a rounder body as well...
