Get a true-born Southerner to say "alewife" and you will know where the term of "LY' comes from ;-) lol

Thanks everyone for the LY explanation! I am no longer confused on the issue from here in Cain-Tuck-E!

"Maybe since the pier is a "fishing and education pier", they can put up big picture-signs of the scaled sardine, with all of the scientific information about the species, since the species figures so prominently into The Gulf Shores Pier Fishing Experience."
I can make a call next week and see if we can work on a "common baitfish" sign for the pier!Carl

You only missed getting cold and wind burned, plus a little wet this a.m. Bill. We headed north before 9:00, only fish that I saw caught were LY's, plenty of bait. Sorry I missed you today, it was good catching up. Better days ahead.... Originally Posted by ironman172

A mispronounced name for a misidentified species. Would not make sense anywhere else - makes perfect sense here. lol.
