Everyone who fishes saltwater should take this exercise.  I got 11 out of 12 , going too fast.....

WE don't get to see a whole lotof yelloweyes in our area, so their breakdown of ID factors was really helpful.  The repitition also means  I might even remember.

Thanks for posting!

11/12. For the ones that failed it just means that you need MORE fishing time to help identify them fishy buggers.

copper and canary are pretty easy to identify. no problem there. the vermilion n yellow eye are the 2 that can be mistaken so i rub the lower chin. i caught 2 last weekend that looks like vermilion. it was red and just look like it until i rubbed the lower chin and it was smooth. that's my cue.
