One thing special about fishing in South Florida is the variety of different fish that you can encounter. I think that I've caught at least 40 or 50 different varieties and I've barely scratched the surface. The different fish in this area have different personalities and require different approaches if you want to catch them. There are several varieties that I still haven't cracked the code on. Below is one of the ones that mocks me. I can bring these things up 2 and 3 at a time for hours and still never get a single one that is legal length to keep. They all seem to be about an inch short of the minimum. This is called a trigger fish. They are tough to clean due to their tough skin, but they are great to eat. They have a nice clean white flaky meat that is not at all "fishy".
