The Bay Anchovy is predominately a marine species but is found in bays, estuaries, and coastal rivers along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts from Maine to Mexico. They can be distinguished from herrings and shads by their large upper jaw that extends back past their eye. They use their large mouth to filter feed for plankton.
