Remarks A coastal species not found far offshore (Ref. 27547). Occurs at shallow depths on mud bottoms, often in brackish water and may even enter rivers (Ref. 4705). Benthic (Ref. 58426). Feeds on small fishes, bottom invertebrates (Ref. 4705), and zoobenthos (Ref. 27547). Moves closer inshore in the evenings, especially on a rising tide (Ref. 27547). Appears to move offshore in the fall and inshore in the spring (Ref. 27547).
