A Beautiful Goby Saves the Day | Highfin Shrimpgoby | Thailand Fishing 🇹🇭

It's always good to have a backup plan when things don't go your way. This entire fishing session was a backup plan and it sort of worked out at the end. I'm beginning to learn which species are the common ones on Phuket and in the tide pools it seems that the ornate goby is one of the more common ones. I was pleasantly surprised though when I made a cast out into a few inches of water in what I would call a lagoon and came out with a highfin shrimpgoby (Cryptocentrus altipinna). Nice way to save the day.
Thanks to sgmultispeciesfishing ( / sgmultispeciesfishing ) for help with the IDs.

Gobies and blennies are my favourite fish. Cant wait for the mudskipper episode

[@TheFishingNomad]

Me too. I like any kind of small bottom dwelling fish.

[@johnaufderheide6117]

We love them as well. Really like catching skilletfish in salty waters and sculpins in the freshwater.

@@johnaufderheide6117 Unfortunately I've never caught a skilletfish or a freshwater sculpin. I'd love to catch both those, especially the skilletfish.

If you are ever up in MD or VA I can help get you some spots to try. Also can get you on crested and striped blennies as well.
