On a trip to San Jose Del Cabo, we really hit it big with the Pez Gallo.
They were all this size for about four straight hours. . . .Constant action.

Interesting looking fish. I understand that they are a sought after game fish, but, are they good to eat?

I've never eaten one, but I've heard that they're edible when they're small, but not the greatest fish fare.

good size for 4 hours of fun. I've only had the small ones in a frenzy for about an hour.

I love Roosters he,s the greatest fish with the exception of the Bluefin out there,strong,exotic looking,never say die fish and I love where he lives,the beach,he is just great.

Anyone who has caught one of these guys will become a fan,treat with care after the catch.
