A friend showed me this pic last night. Her dad caught it in the keys. Is this a creole fish? Wynchman? Some kind of snapper?
Thanks in advance

By the size of those eyes, it looks like something that hangs out in deep water. Awesome catch, can't wait to find out what it is

It looks like a Queen Snapper. We caught some in the islands years ago.
