Looks like a dogfish to me.

Probably not although that was my wife's first reaction also. I've
caught dogfish sharks. These were much smaller and the fins/gills
weren't right among other things.


Yup, I think you're right. Size-wize, a mullet is about right,
especially if they were jumping and schooling.

Catch one and smoke it. If it tastes like smoked mullet, then you know
you've got it properly named!

Mullet, now all you need is cheese grits and hushpuppies.


I love cheese grits. I just wish they were calorie free. Damn they're
good with fried eggs, yolk runny. Oh man
