Fish ID help?
Hi all. Fished the Mermentau river today for not much luck. Small hardheads and croakers. Did catch something I haven't seen before and was wondering if anyone can help ID it?

Could be a baby mangrove snapper

Its in the grunt family, looks like what is called a pigfish

Cool. Thanks for the info guys. Definitely looked like the pigfish. Put up a pretty decent fight for a small fish. Let it go to fight another day, and happy I got to catch a new fish.
