I also heard they would bring bad luck!
As an early Baja spearfisherman we would often see them but never ever spear one!
Our name for them was the Baja Golden Grouper
So sad such a lovely rare fish which is becoming rarer every day was taken and consumed by a unconcerned pole fisherman-- now the fish is gone
forever!

Threads like this one always tend to be divicive between those who think they are the center of the universe and those who know better.
What's worse is that there are some here who won't have a clue as to what I'm saying.

"So sad such a lovely rare fish which is becoming rarer every day was taken and consumed by a unconcerned pole fisherman-- now the fish is gone

1. who says and under what study it is becoming rarer every day?
2. where did the fisherman say he was unconcerned??
if you are on the bottom, you have no idea what's on the line.
if it is killed because it was reeled in - i guess the humane thing to do is HARVEST it!!
i heard tell...that 99% of all life forms ever existent on the planet have become extinct through the eons - well before man climbed down from the
trees...... big deal.
i believe the lizard / reptilian alien intelligent life forms many of us have met and talked to including yours truly, are actually from the future
of earth after reptiles evolve to a plane higher than man today, man goes extinct, the lizards learn to speak and fly planes.
then they learn space travel and Voila' - space aliens with green slimy skin and long forked tongues.

In the eye/mind of the beholder
I'll once again agree with Dennis
Some things are just.....special.
I grew up diving with Garibaldi. a fish that looks very much like the Golden Grouper though they don't grow as large.
I love/loved those guys. They are soooo curious and territorial. You can swim right up to them and they will look you square in the eye. You could
reach out and touch some of them.
Magnificent beauties. Sitting ducks! They went extinct where I grew up eventually as did others.
They have been protected by law for 50 years I think.
I knew a guy who would spear anythang he could, a real jerk. One day he came ashore with a Garibaldi that he speared. I could not believe it,
everyone knows they are off-limits.
When confronted he simply said...."what's so special about them? I've seen lots of them, and....they're stupid....and tasty"
I never went diving with him again.
DON\'T SQUINT! Give yer eyes a break!

Gee Scarecrow you should have caught the fish when it was a Leopard grouper or after it became one again, then it wouldn't have been so rare' I do
know the area that he fishes and it is over 200+ ft and most fish except the yellow tail the stomach inflates and they die unless you know how to
deflate them and than most don't make it. I caught a 28# broom tail there last week and he was bloated, but it didn't ruin the taste. Scarecrow is and
excellent fisherman,
good sportsman and all around gentleman, so get off his case

He was fishing.
He hooked one.
He brought it up from very deep water.
He did not how to deflate the bladder without harming the fish.
It died.
He ate it.
This whole thread got so weird and took so many wrong turns that I decided to delete my previous Devil's Advocat input and condense it into this one
photo.

Too late, htnfool...I drank it when it was still cold.
And you're right, that is one evil pic...like this one of the fish in the round.
That bigish cabrilla was caught.. not that far from Santispac...hint, hint.

Dude,
That is my fishing spot. How in hell did you find it?
Pompano,
I got another one, so you can have it. It only had one fish on it anyway.
Great fish, caught around the island behind you perhaps? I caught one that size around Blanco a couple years back. YUMMY

I found one of you lures there on a dive, Did you mount it?

Yup..got the jig in the poolroom now.
and here is another catch from Roca Frijoles. About this time of year, too. Lots of pez gallo/roosterfish then...along with huge red snappers!
This might give hope to the original poster about fishing in Conception Bay...but I still recommend going outside for a better chance these days.
