Young Pigfish are pinkish with thin stipes on the sides of the body and red lines on the head. |
Pigfish are in the grunt family and are another good bait for most bottom fish. |
Dolphins, rock-cod, pigfish, and blackfish may be caught as quickly as they can be hauled out. |
Pigfish are members of the grunt family which are noted for the rasping or grunting sounds they make in their throat when captured on a hook or otherwise disturbed. |
