Default Snook

Definitely a Snook.

Common from S. Carolina to South America in the Atlantic but they are not common in the Western Gulf. They do show up in small numbers in the fall though.

It's a hybrid of some sort

Silver Carp are fresh water, that is an albino redfish.

Default Snook - Robalo

[QUOTE=fonikoddity;811044]Looks more like a Robalo to me.


Robalo is the Spanish name for Snook. They were called Robalo in Colombia and Panama where I lived. We caught them both in the Caribbean and in the Pacific. I even caught some in the Panama canal.

WOW! that's a Snook. Common around Florida but not many caught around here.
Where did you catch it? Very good to eat but I'm sure there is a sized limit and that one looked a little small.
