Livie 4) Bergall or cunner, Tautogolabrus adspersus. Captain kept calling these guys "perch"

6) Black Sea Bass, Centropristis striata, also caught in NJ. I was not expecting to catch any of these guys on this trip, since I probably will catch well over 50 this year going for them and for other species. Hoping for more exotic or less common species.

Livie 5) Little Skate, Leucoraja erinacea.

Livie 6) Tautog or Blackfish, Tautoga onitis, this one was a keeper male (see white chin) and we have it in the fridge . These guys are the largest wrasse species in the US and can get into double digits.
