While trying to hook up the first striper of the year, my buddy hooked this fish called a cunner. Never seen or heard of these but apparently they are great eating and this one is a decent one. Check out the mouth on this thing!

I was thinking tautog when I saw 1st those teeth. Cunners average 12" long and that's a good one there, and they have multiple rows of cone-shaped teeth. Most cunners we've caught in/outside Ipswich Bay have been the blue(er) coloroed ones.
To tell them apart, we ID them by the shape of the head, 'tog having a more rounded head and stronger looking mouth, cunners having a more sloped-shaped head with a weaker looking mouth.

Interesting fish.
That ocean's a fascinating place.
