Nice one....We do have orange mouth in the bays around here along with the short fin.  They both have orange colored mouths.  The way to identify the different species is the orange mouth will have a pointed tail. (meaning the rays in the middle of the tail are longer than the rest) and the short fin will have an s shaped tail.  also the orange mouth have 10 to 11 anal rays and the shortfin will have 7 to 8. Dont quote me on those numbers but i think thats what they are.  best way to tell is the tail.

I've heard stories about orangemouth from all the old dudes, but every picture they ever showed me was a shortfin... every one that wasn't from the Salton Sea that is.
I'd love to see any pics if you could find them.  I have yet to see any, but have never put in that much effort to find any either.   8)
You can't catch them from your computer chair.
