pinfish
Pinfish is a small, saltwater fish of the family Sparidae, commonly found in the warmer parts of the Western Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. It is characterized by its silver body marked with vertical olive-colored bars and a dark blue spot on the head near the gill opening. Its name comes from its pointed front dorsal fin, which resembles a pin. These fishes are a common bait fish, often used by anglers for sport fishing.
