Kid "photo-bombing" the picture... I can't stop laughing. Dang kids!!! That's hilarious.
concur with dave.
Also known as "Calamus delicious".
very very very good to eat. Don't know which i like better the red or choclate porgy. Both are great table fare.
Don't let DMF from around Wrightsville see it or he will claim it is a Pinky and measure it. Took my fish

LOL, had two DMF officers stop me in MHC Turning Basin a couple of years ago and the younger whipper snapper wanted to give me a ticket for a way short red fish....andhe was mean about it also.
His buddy, older and wiser, called him a f...ing idiot and told him it was a three pound croaker.
You better believe I made my agreement with the second officer loudly spoken...enough for the younger fella to have an embarrased red face.
