Caught in Clearwater Bay on June 29th. This fish is about 8 inches long and had hundreds of needle sharp teeth. I can't ID it, anyone?

Very aggressive little buggers. They've saved me from a total skunkin' a couple of times though.

Lizardfish believe it or not good bait for certain species.

Lizard for sure...when you catch a lizard on a lure it's time to go home

Thanks guys for your help. Never caught one of them before and was happily in the middle of catching a bunch of other little fish with daughter when this one interrupted us.

This is SOOOOOOOO true... when I am at the pier with my boys, if I see first a cowfish, then a sea robin, then a lizard... we pack up and leave.. hahahaha

Was using a vertical jig off the sea legs one day when I felt a little thump, reeled in a lizardfish, couldn't believe it
