I believe it is a banded rudderfish, but not certain. We were actually hoping to get some MANGROVE SNAPPER or GROUPER. The biggest GROUPER was 19 1/2"(22" min.) and not the first SNAPPER, just junkfish. When we went for our dive the fish were way beyond flighty, even the 500lb ***FISH was runnin from us. It's not like there isn't other spots to fish in the ocean. But when your anchored and another boat runs up on you and starts at your marker jug, that's pretty $hitty. And to do that to somebody to go down and shoot some BARRACUDA, that seems even worse to me.

Get some large wieghted treble hooks and start snag fishing. I've heard that divers pull reely good ;D, especially when they have a treble hook embeded in their butt.

I was looking for some cherry bombs, believe me I was. It's not like there isn't other places to go and dive. Why do you have to anchor less than 100 feet away from somebody who has been at that spot before you.
