I was just curious as to how common these guys are. My buddy and I have caught two between us the past couple times weve gone out. They are a cool lookin fish and I was just wonderin if anybody else has been running into them lately as well. I know there was a post a couple days ago with a gentlemen who caught one off his boat. Anybody else seein em?

I've caught a couple off of the close in wrecks. They're definitely cool looking fish.

| This is what I thought was a small African Pompano, but it is actually a Look Down. Not saying you guys didn't catch one, but just wanted to show you what I learned upon doing some research. Look Down
