1 Yellowtail
2 unknown do you have another pic that shows it's side and not belly.
It's important to know what you're catching as regulations vary with species of snapper- especially the reddish colored ones. Get a plastic card that you can use to ID snapper- cheaper than a fine.

Thanks for reply.
When I get a chance, I will take another shot for the second fish..BTW, is this also one of snappers?

As far as I know, I can cook and eat snappers...
So it is ok to cook and eat for those two fishes i caught, isn't it?

Thanks,

I can't make out enough of the fish to tell what the second one is. Could be a porgy. Definitely NOT a vermilion snapper or a Red Snapper.

By the look of the color and size it appears to myself like a Mangrove snapper. Need a better pic of head markings.
