Ladyfish at The Naples Pier

As soon as we walked down the Naples pier for the first time, one of the guys yanked up a few ladyfish.  They look like small smelt but only larger and with a few extra fins.

I figured he was going to toss them into his cooler but he instead threw one back and rebaited his other rod with it to use as bait to catch a larger fish.
