Not sure if you added the picture of the fish to your post?

Updated the pic didn't go in the first time

Cabazon or a sculpin I think

No doubt that's a sculpin.

make sure he's 10".

Sculpin, a dark one at that

Well hes 14.5

Very nice size! Also great eating. The spines are quite poisonous if poked by them. Always handle with extreme caution. Jim

Nice!

Deffinately a sculpin and a nice one too. Thats a tasty fish. are you familiar with the sculpin "hair cut"? getting the spines off those things really helps safety wise. All dorsal spines, anal spines, and pelvic spines and thier arsenal is pretty much gone. the ones on the head hurt but aren't venomous. Mike

Nice fish bro ill be home soon hopefully ill be able to go fishing with you and you can teach me a few things.

Sculpin. drop it in your lap to be sure. :)

Yea gave it the haircut and gutted it now its on ice in my cooler in the trunk

Sculpin, Cabazon has sky blue inside mouth. Both great eating

Very cool you can post while on the water AND get a response within 10 minutes.

Albacore

About time.

Hey man, nice meeting you today on the water. Enjoy those taco's!!!

that's a typical bay fish. The scientific name is wormiest wormfest
bassturd fish. If cooked right they are delicious! :eating:

The fleshy flap over the eye would lead me to ID it as a Cabezon (mouth/throat is not always blue). If it is, you can verify it by noticing fewer spines than a sculpin (scorpionfish) and blue flesh. Cabezon is one of the best eating fish ever! But don't eat their eggs - they are toxic.
