Lutjanus monostigma
April 9, 2019
The one-dot snapper is an occasional host of reefs and sandy areas, usually solitary or in couple, sometimes in schools. It is quite shy and frequently mixed with other species of snappers. Because of its modest size, it is rarely a preferred target.
It is very recognizable by its yellow fins and the black spot that characterizes it.
The one-dot snapper is present all year round, at any time, but preferentially at dark hours.
It is hunted through static or mobile agachon, and it does not come easily.
As its flesh is pretty tasty, I highly recommend it as soon as it reaches a decent size, typically one kg.
