That fish is definately a shortfin corvina. If he thought it was a corbina then he would have called a wsba a corbina too I would think. And the fact that he packed up and split kinda showed that he wasn't sure about his catch either. Short fin have been a fairly common catch in our local waters for years now and people still have debates about them or don't even know what they are. Know your fish. If you thought the guy was poaching then calling the DFG was the right thing to do. Mike
