Salt marsh mummichog dipping set up.
Tidepool Tim says, "The mummichog is only of few fish that is truly universal through the entire coastline of the Gulf of Maine. Between Cape sable and Cape Cod, mummies inhabit every estuary, salt march, muddy creek, and sheltered shore line. We use our dip net to scoop them up!"
