Overall it doesnt matter now that theres visual aides. The OP got it hours ago. lol

HP, sÃX.

Queenfish are also called herring, but they're really not herring....they used to be plentiful...but i cant remember seeing one in the last 10-15 years...

They're so many different nick names for fish, here are a couple of examples..

Chucklehead
Alabama
Florida
Bosco
Warthog
Turd roller
Mud marlin
Specky
7-11 perch
Barndoor
Grouper
Slime sticks
Logs
Stovepipes
Reds

I get queens on the sabiki now and then when it hits bottom.
Tomcod arent cod.
Sculpin arent sculpin. Theyre scorpionfish.

I like to call them "Catchem lotta fish" and "Catchem fewer fish". But at times you can't beat one with the other.

If a jack isnt lively enough, paddle faster.

I use strictly Holy Mackerel.
I figure if they are good enough for Jesus they're good enough for me!

But you have to walk out on the water with your sabiki to get them
