last night I caught.......

Book says they grow up to 4 feet long! Yeow!!! Also, says they are excellent bait fish that spend most of thier time at or near the surface. Hmm... wonder why I like floating needles so much!

we've caught them in a cast net in chatham harbor. thru them in the cooler all day and they lived in the melted icewater/beer swill all the way back to boston.

i think there the same ones they sell in pet stores as GAR.
i've had some for a few years in a 55 gallon freshwater tank and fed the little goldfish.
nasty is right.

I caught one back in July while it was just swimming at the surface, I shined my flashlight at it and just grabbed it by hand. I never knew why there were needlefish shaped lures until I caught a one.
