The Blue Runner makes for a good bait fish when targeting XXXXXXXXXXX.
The Blue Runner is characterized by his near football shaped body, mostly white or blue and steely, leading to a curved forked tail. On the gill cover, a spot is present just foreward of a long sweeping pectoral fin.
These fish are found in almost all of Florida coastal waters. Ranging from up rivers and streams all the way out to the deep open water.
Live shrimp or cut baitfish make for the best natural bait, while jigs and flies are the best artificial bait.
