You got it, Tommy...That dem der is a Atlantic Cutlassfish, also known as a ribbon fish. They commonly grow to about four feet, but are mostly known for their bait value, although are prized in Asia for culinary aspects. They belong to the Family Trichiuridae, which are the Snake Mackerels.

Another one tomorrow...get ready...
