Compatibles Fresh 2 Saltwater Fish
In the time I've spent fishing both fresh and salt water fisheries, I can not help but to appreciate the similarities in some of the fish. I find it very interesting that I catch myself at times "Nick Naming" fish making my self believe a fresh water fish is a certain name due to the salt water experience I had growing up in Florida.
For instance I was recently netting baits small sized "Skip Jack"/ Shad and I was calling them sardines. You may have herd of them as "Fresh Water Tarpon", are really also "Skip Jack"/ Shad. Even though "Tarpon" are euryhaline fish which means they can live in Fresh and Salt Water.
I was recently fishing in the Atlantic off the coast of Fort Lauderdale FL and I saw some Triple tail on the weed lines while fishing for Dolphin aka MahiMahi. I thought to myself, wow the little triple tail have a similar look to a Crappie. After comparing pictures online, it confirmed my thoughts.
Finally, I though it would be an interesting topic to share what fish look similar to you??
