Went to Malibu on Monday on a short session of surf fishing I caught these two fish.3744937450374873748837489. I caught this red one but have no idea what kind of fish this is. I cant wait for the 20th for hunting the giants IV looking forward to meeting you all and learning some new techniques since I'm new to surf fishing.

Cutbait, your right. My photos of a fish I caught yesterday didn't come out very good so I searched and copied this one. I had no idea what it was. But Mikey aka Exfactor knew right away what it was. I didn't even want to touch it. Freaky fish that's for sure.
A copy of the fish I caught yesterday a Sarcastic fringehead.
