amberjack
Yellowtail's larger cousin
Amberjack is any of several large, powerful game fish found in warm Atlantic and Pacific waters.
They're prized by sport fishermen for their fighting strength and by some for eating, though larger specimens may accumulate toxins.
The name likely refers to the amber-colored stripe along their sides.
We caught a forty-pound amberjack off the reef.
