Smooth Back Puffer

Logocephalas laevigatus

Description:

Silver on back and sides. White belly.

Habitat:

Creeks, rivers and flats along the big bend coast.

Notes:

I've fished and dove around Florida my whole life and never encountered this fish till the the last couple of years. Now I catch them frequently. They are very aggressive attacking any kind of bait or artificial lure.
