Thread: Help me!!

Since this storm has messed up surf fishing, I'm reduced to fishing here at navy cove . Popping cork and gulp shrimp. Catching plenty of something.. lol. Think it's trout. Ideas?? Size limit? Silver with pinkish purplish shimmer. Nice set of front teeth!!

Sounds like a cougar but what do I know

Pictures would help with ID, but I think it's what the locals call "white trout" (no restrictions)
Two closely related species, either Sand or probably Silver Seatrout...

Thanks #'r , I appreciate it . By the article and pics they are definitely sand trout. Hopefully I. An catch some more and keep them now that I know what they are, lol.
Does the changing pressure have the same effect on salt water fish as it does fresh? If so .... 😡
