What Kind of Fish is This?

Type: Tidal
Region: Southern
Location: Londontowne, Edgewater

We caught four of these fish on a beach in Londontowne, Edgewater and we need help identifying what kind of fish it is.

DNR Response:You caught a striped killfish, they are actually residents of bay waters but always seem to be a curiosity when caught. An interesting aspect of the striped killfish is the male has only vertical stripes while the mature female have some horizontal lines. We believe you caught a female.
