we caught this off the rocks in gonzaga bay...we asked eleazar who runs the camp we were staying at what it was(since we had no idea)....he looked at it and shrugged his shoulders,we asked a guy who lived close by and fished the bay quite a bit and he didnt know....anybody got any ideas :?:

Best place to see for yourself is Gene Kira's new web site: MexFish.com and click on the Fish I.D. page, here is that page: http://www.mexfish.com/fish/fish.htm

i think youre all right,the only difference being the little oarnge spot on its side and if i remember right it had a little blue spot on the other side...any way one of the guys at camp said it was a wrasse but I thought i'd check with the nomad crew....you guys know your fish :spingrin:
