Local Species Insights: Mexican Mojarra
The Mexican Mojarra (Eucinostomus argenteus) is a common inshore species found throughout Florida's coastal waters, including the Riviera Beach and West Palm Beach areas. These silver-sided fish with compressed bodies typically inhabit sandy bottoms, seagrass beds, and areas around mangroves and docks. Though not usually a primary target for most anglers, they provide excellent action on light tackle and can be surprisingly strong fighters for their size.
Anglers can target Mojarra using small hooks baited with pieces of shrimp, cut bait, or small jigs. They're often caught while fishing for other inshore species and provide great practice for novice anglers. While not considered a premier food fish, they are edible and can be prepared when caught at sufficient size.
