Yeah, it's a Lookdown. I don't know why they call it that because I've only seen them looking up.
To fish, or not to fish, . . . those are the answers.

It is a juvenile lookdown. My books says the juvenile has several extremely long filaments.
Cute little guy! Also, food value is very good.

Good amount of meat if you clean them properly. Catch then on No.4 red Sabiki rigs. Hard fighters.
