Something like this little fella? only a little more reddish?
This is a moses perch, same family as a jack, Lutjanus.

Very nice eating moses perch. And good fun to catch on light gear!!
yes Simon looks like it but little more red. Thanks I didn't catch it my mate caught it. He did say it pull like a big fish but only about 20cm.
Was it just the one? If I catch one I often get a few more. Good fun on light gear and on the table too!
Cheers, Mick.
