I guess this is P speculator rather than P caeruleopunctatus because of the white edge blotches on the caudal fin. Happy to be corrected.
It does seem a fair way north though.
Any thoughts @sascha_schulz

Captured in approximately 50cm of water on the low tide but with 9 plus metres tidal variation it would have been over 10metres on the high.
I saw you comments on another observation I have submitted @wildroo. Much appreciated.
Also @davemmdave any thoughts.
Thanks

Not a capture of mine but just trying to identify this for someone.
My thoughts were "Lethrinus genivittatus"

Large-scaled Grinner (Saurida undosquamis)Observer

Not my fish but trying to identify it for someone.
Im guessing S undosquamis because of the spots on the leading edge of the Caudal fin.

Fish caught by Steve Smith and given permission to publish on INat.
Fish was taken a bit further south and led to believe there was a few taken by other Anglers over a period.
