bluish green with a silvery underside.
Named for their color, bluefish are bluish green with a silvery underside. Young fish about 6-8 inches long are called "snappers" and are frequently pan-fried. The bluefish travels in schools throughout the water column, feeding predominantly on menhaden, herring, and mackerel. The fish has a voracious appetite and is a frenzied eater, often pursuing schools of small fish onto the beach, where bathers have been bitten by accident. The bluefish is most prevalent just off the coast during the summer. It may grow to 45 inches and 27 pounds; in our area, most weigh from 2-15 pounds.

Bluefish are greenish blue with a sturdy compressed body, a large head, and sharp, triangular teeth. They are found throughout the world and are a migratory species that range from Nova Scotia to Florida off the Atlantic coast and can be found in the Gulf of Mexico from Florida to Texas.

Brown-speckeled on top and a pale yellow underbelly.
The dorsal fin is magenta, all other fins are bright neon orange.
