I.D this fish

[ityperx]

Sunday morning, my cousin and I decided to hit the surf for a few hours. Tides were high, swell were huge, water condition clear, and there was no bite fish insight. I pretty much stank up the place but my cousin caught one on a nuclear chicken. As he landed the fish, at first we thought it was a big fat BSP, till we got a better look at it. I'd check around the net and can't find any info on it. Here's hoping someone here can identify it.

I want to say a Rubberlip Perch. Nice catch!

Definately not a zebra or sargo...not sure, as i am color blind, but i think BSP is right. Rubberlip!

I agree.

Is that PV? You should've casted a LC.

Hmm I've never heard of this fish before, thanks for the help.

I've been to catalina as well, I've seen halfmoon perch, but never this. What part of the island did you fish at?

We release the fish, didn't get a chance to eat it.

I threw out some LC, nothing went for it.

Sorry to double post, but I wasn't able to "edit post" I click on "save" and it'll just sit there idly doing nothing.

I gotta learn how to do multiple quotes, I just noticed the little icon near the "Reply With Quote".

Thanks for the replies everyone.

It does the same thing for me when I try to edit a post. The way to fix it is after you click Edit Post, click on Go Advanced.

It does look like PV and a great spot.
