can anyone tell me what kind of fish this is? we have been catching them on the edge of the ship channel. they are about 8"-10" long and shades of brown with black splotches on the body.

Looks like channel mullet...there was a thread on here one time about em if you search for it. I think I've heard they were good to eat ;)
