SCOTSMAN-Polysteganus praeorbitalis


The Scotsman is a beautiful but uncommon sea bream due to fishing pressure. Found between 20-100m of water it is rarely caught by shore anglers. They attain approx. 90cm in length and feed predominantly on squid, fish and crustaceans. A sought after fish for its strength in a fight as well as good tasting meat.
