The Dolphinfish
The Dolphinfish belongs to the Coryphaenidae family. Its length can reach a maximum of 2 m, but the average length reaches 1 m. Its average weight is 14 kg but it can reach more than 30 kg. It has a maximum lifetime of 4 years. It can reproduce all year round. The best time to catch it is from April to June. There are two species of dolphins. It is easy to distinguish the two species. They both have the same elongated and spindle-shaped shape. The single dorsal fin extends over the entire length of the body. The anal fin begins approximately in the middle of the body and ends at the same point as the dorsal fin. Pelvic fins are located under the pectoral fins and can be compressed into a shallow groove in the body. The caudal fin is strongly forked. The head is dull and the mouth contains many small teeth, as well as a small oval dental patch on the tongue. Cycloid scales cover the body. Mature males exhibit dimorphic sexual growth and develop a prominent bone crest at the front of the head. The color of the dolphinfish is quite dramatic with golden shades on the sides, irregular spots of metallic blue and green on the back and sides, and whites and yellows on the underside. This fish is very colorful underwater, captures light and reflects a wide range of bright colors.

The Bonefish belongs to the Albulidae family. The maximum size of the bonefish is 104 cm and the maximum weight is 10 kg. They can live up to 10 years. It breeds from November to May. It can be fished all year round. Many fossil remains, several million years old and dating from the dinosaur era, show that the tarpon has the particularity of having changed very little during its long existence. It can be recognized by its streamlined body covered with large silver scales and its mouth with a prominent lower jaw with many small pointed teeth. These characteristics seem to have inspired the different appellations attributed to it according to its geographical distribution: "Silver King" in America or the "Great Scale" in the West Indies.

The Gag fish belongs to the Serranidae family. The gag fish can reach a maximum total length of 1.45 m and a maximum weight of 36.5 kg. This species has a life span of 16 years. They breed from January to May. They can be fished from June to December. The gag fish is typical of groupers with an elongated oblong body. The head is long while the mouth is large with a protruding lower jaw. The bases of the dorsal and anal fins are covered with thick skin and scales. The caudal fin is wide and has a slightly concave margin. The body color of the gag fish depends on the sex and age of the fish. Juveniles and mature females are pale grey to greyish brown with dark spots and worm-shaped marks giving a marbled appearance. The caudal, anal and pelvic fins have dark blue outer margins. Large mature males are pale to medium grey in color, with barely visible cross-links below the dorsal fin. The ventral surface is dark grey to black. The soft dorsal fin, caudal fin, pectoral and pelvic fins also range from dark grey to black, while the margins of the anal and caudal fins are white.

The red drum belongs to the Scianidae family. The maximum reported length is 155 cm, but this species is generally observed at a length of about 100 cm. The maximum registered weight of the red drum is just under 45.0 kg. It is known to live to be at least 50 years old. It breeds from mid-August to mid-November. It can be caught from fall to winter. The body of the red drum is elongated with a slightly arched back and a sloping head. It has a blunt snout with a large subterminal mouth similar to most species of the Sciaenidae family. There are two dorsal fins, the first with ten hard spines and the second with one hard spine and many soft rays. The caudal fin is slightly concave. The red drum differs from the black drum, which is closely linked to it (Pogonias cromis) by its absence of barbels. The red drum is generally coppery reddish. The coloring can also range from deep dark copper to an almost silvery sheen. The ventral side is generally lighter to almost white in color. The red drums have a distinct black spot near the base of the tail. One point is the most common, but some people have several points.

The King Mackerel belongs to the Scombridae family. The king mackerel is a medium-sized fish, generally weighing between 5 and 14 kg, but weighing more than 40 kg. Females can live up to 14 years, and males up to 11 years. It spawns from May to September. It can be fished from April to December. Unlike other members of Scombridae, mackerel do not have a black area on the front of the first dorsal fin. The mackerel king has 12 to 18 spines in his first dorsal fin; 15-18 rays in the second dorsal fin, followed by 7-10 pinnacles; and 21-23 rays in the pectoral fin. Its body is about five times larger than its head and about six times longer than its depth. The whole body is covered with rudimentary scales, except for its pectoral fin. The lateral line drops abruptly after the second dorsal fin, then continues to the tail, distinguishing it from red mackerel (Scomberomorus regalis). The king mackerel also lacks scales on the pectoral fins, as does the Spanish mackerel (Scomberomorus maculatus), unlike the red mackerel which has scales extending over the pectoral fin. The king mackerel is a silver fish with indistinct bars or spots on the side. The dorsal surface is black with iridescent tones of blue and green. Young fish have small bronze spots on 5 or 6 irregular rows.
