Latest Fishes and Designs


Drew up a few of the more interesting groupers out there.

  1. Strawberry Hind (Grouper, Kitty Mitchell)(Cephalopholis spiloparaea): My brothers and I have caught many strawberry groupers over the years in the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Ocean, always putting them back (too small anyhow). These colorful aggressive little groupers (hinds) would be great in an aquarium to be sure, with their pink and red coloration and spots, though I am sure any other fish would be dinner.
  2. Coral Hind (Coral Trout)(Cephalopholis miniata): This colorful fish is found off the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean Reefs including the Red Sea and Great Barrier Reef.  Again a little grouper that likes reefs. 
  3. Misty Grouper (Hyporthodus mystacinus): This is a deep water grouper found from 300 feet on down, on ledges and deep wrecks and reefs. 

Tight lines,
Bryce
