Identify This Fish and Win a Mustad Gift Pack 11

Apr 03, 2010 by Rob Tobeck

Capt. Keith Robbins of Spot Tail Guide Service sent me these pictures of a mystery fish that a friend of his caught recently out of Shilshole.  After getting stumped myself on the type of fish we had on our hands I decided to hold a contest.  If you are the first to leave a comment on this blog with the correct identification of this fish you will win a gift pack from Mustad.  I will include some pre-tied Mustad moching rigs, circle hooks for the upcoming halibut season, swimbait hooks, and some Mustad Ultra Point live bait hooks.

 

Remember, the first one wins the gift pack from Mustad.  Mustad has been making hooks since the 1870's and whether you are the northwest's greatest salmon fisherman or this years Bassmaster Classic winner Kevin VanDam, from freshwater lakes to the open blue ocean, if it swims, Mustad makes the hook to catch'em.

I think Robichaux wins. And with a name like that, he has got to be from Louisiana. Probably south Louisiana.
