What kind of fish makes a weird ribbit noise?
Okay so I caught a fish today in southern NJ in tidal brackish water. It was making a ribbit/croaking noise similar to a frog or toad. It was about 6 inches, colors similar to a bluefish, teeth similar to a bluefish, it had the head style of a porgy, a yellow forked tail, and it was thin like a panfish. I may be able to post pictures or a video in a bit but does anyone know what this is?!
I looked at pictures of a croaker and that is not it. The tail is shaped differently and the top fins are dark not yellow.

That's a juvenile Jack Crevalle. They usually grunt when out of water.
