This little guy was caught in Myrtle Beach South Carolina. I have asked many, many people and can't find the answer. What is it?

Definitely a bottom-dweller, possibly in the blenny family... will have a look on http://fishbase.org for you...

I saw the question on Fishbase.
It looks like a labriosomid blenny to me, perhaps "hairy blenny" Labrisomus nuchipinni?
All the best from Denmark

Thank you! If it's not http://fishbase.org/Summary/speciesSumm ... uchipinnis as you suggest then it's very close. It looks so familiar, wish it was an underwater shot showing his natural colors. Welcome to the Plankton Forums!
