In the bays of Long Island we called those BlowFish. (northern puffers) They were/(still are?) consider pests. They were everyplace when I was a kid, don't see too many anymore, esp. up here

I dug up a toadfish once in my clam rake...hiddious looking thing.

My kids caught this in a net and put it in their salt water bay tank they had, still not sure what it is:

I fish for triggers every August on Long Island South Shore, very prevalent on a few pieces I fish tough as hell to fillet. In May blowfish can be taken in decent numbers inside some of the brackish bowls inside Moriches bay. I catch a bunch every May on sands but they are very small but fun to play with. I think they dont spread as far north as they used to but dont know why.
