Here's a pic of a decent size to'au, my personal largest. They are a introduced species and our state record is 4.5lbs. Thanks for looking.

A pretty aggressive reef dwelling snapper. I've caught several trolling over the reef in the wee hours of the am( mostly dark). Pretty good eats too.

Thanks gfish. The picture doesn't do this fish justice but it was a fatty.

Are you getting them with lures ? Or, some kind of "bait"?
