They look to me like baby Pout[ Conger Eel].. Could be wrong, but thats my guess...

Boys look kinda bundled up for 60 degrees.

Ocean probably mid forties little wind u don't feel like 60 degrees ! Never go offshore even in summer & expect same as land temps . U can always take clothes off but if u go light can ruin ur day .
Once on a LR trip out of Montauk 26 of us on 140' boat on a four day trip , second day rained heavy most of the day , about a dozen guys who paid over $700 bucks a piece for trip had to sit in cabin for a good part of a decent bite!
Go figure !!
