Not a catch we as anglers want they decimate a bait in seconds with there beak like jaw biting chunks out of a good bait ,but they are extremely gorgeous as a aquarium fish .if you catch them please release them safely,discarding them on the beach or rocks is not cool they form a part of a healthy eco system doing their bit to maintain that system.

Does anyone know what type of fish this is? Pretty sure it’s not Mahi like the analyzer says… Been puzzled for two days now. Caught off the NAS Pcola seawall at the tail end of a storm.
