[EfrenM]

went today at the upper at the worst hours 10 to 1 no bites at all i was using a lc 100 sp on a shad pattern and a 4 inch huddleston shad pattern. The water level was very low today I was there last week and it was higher as I was walking along the shore I saw these two fish which I have never seen before and I'm wondering if anyone knows what type of fish it is.http://i1119.photobucket.com/albums/k631/5janet1990/efrebb_zpsc2b4f303.jpg (http://s1119.photobucket.com/user/5janet1990/media/efrebb_zpsc2b4f303.jpg.html)http://i1119.photobucket.com/albums/k631/5janet1990/efremm_zpsbebff84e.jpg (http://s1119.photobucket.com/user/5janet1990/media/efremm_zpsbebff84e.jpg.html)

It's a snakehead! lol I think it's some sort of goby. May I ask how large was it?

[EfrenM]

one was lake 4 inch and the other maybe 5

[Ifishtoolittle]

Yeah definitely a goby but what kind? I don't know.

[TroutOnly]

Maybe a sculipin,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I think T/O is right. Freshwater sculpin.

Striper love them.

[DC5fishR]

Looks like a sculpin, I've seen them in the lower lagoon too. Tons of them in lake gregory and bbl.

Are they legal to use as bait?

[fishinone]

Are they legal to use as bait?

No. As far as I know only longjaw mud suckers and takin shad are legal finfish in Southern District fresh water.

Sorry I didn't mean to say to use them for bait. I just find them in Striper bellies sometimes when I clean them. Especially duct striper.

[moparferlife]

Agree with the sculpin.

They are retarded lol
They move alot and go no where easy prey for duct stripers :LOL:

[catchingsomefish]

Looks like the fish that one guy was holding up in our last Castaic post, before he took it down, about the same size.........................Dave
