Jones Inlet Wreck

Type:
shipwreck, tugboat?
Depth:
20 ft

We do not know much about this little wreck. She sits in only 15-20 feet of water just outside the western edge of Jones Inlet. In fact, when the wind is howling out of the east this wreck is actually protected or in the lee from Jones Inlets long East Jetty. The tug is broken down and partly buried. She appears to be a vessel from the late 1800s.

Bullhead Catfish

Ameiurus melas

Size
to 24"

Description
Ameiurus is Greek and means "primitive" or "curtailed" in reference to the slight notch in the caudal fin; melas is also Greek and means "black." Black bullheads are typically black to greenish-black on the back, ranging to gray or white on the belly. However, in muddy water, the back may be yellowish-brown. Chin barbels are dark or black, never white. The anal fin has 17-21 rays.
