Sorry im getting back a week late but it was making a low and slow drum sound when I was pulling the hooks off there lips....I don't recall weakfish doing that in the past, the few I have accidentally found in my past....I never target weakfish, mostly fluke and stripers so im not that familiar with them...top picture definitely confirms its a weakie
