Sorry, attachment did not upload.

I'll take a guesseven without the photo... Leopard Grouper in it's golden phase?

It is a fish named: Invisiblis-Transparentus.... squint and stare at the center of the screen real hard and you might see it. Have wine.... have patience.... have a beer or two.. keep trying....

Cardon Man, thanks. That's what it is. I found photos of it and it's what my photo depicts. Thanks for the quick reply.

Was a common catch a few years ago. Now it's so rare that someone needs help ID'ing it. :no:

Charlie?

Farbauti - 8-8-2009 at 01:32 PM

REINA

At least some locals call them that.

I think all of you are wrong. I believe the proper Latin term for the fish is Ghostus disappearus AKA the rare and illusive non-appearus fish.

I believe the fish he's referring to is the "golden grouper":?:

Never have it heard called Charlie before, but then, what do I know.:biggrin::biggrin:

Sidamone..did it look like this one?

Pompano - 8-10-2009 at 09:44 AM

The golden one, that is..the other one is a gordo pompano.

These fish are commonly called...golden grouper, golden cabrilla, reina. Superstition says catching one brings the angler good luck...but only if you release it.

They are mighty tasty.
