Maybe we could get these here one day. If you are tired of catching sea robins, these could prove interesting.

I read an article about the Lionfish invasion online. They said that grouper seem to be the only fish that will readily eat them. Sharks turned their nose up at them. I don't know if I would risk rigging one of these with their spines when a big pin fish works all the time.
