The Amberjack is curious and swims right up to you. But shoot him badly and he'll drag you into the rocks.
• Grows up to 80 kilos
• Patrols wrecks, pinnacles and drop-offs, often in a pack
• Curious: a flasher or a strange sound brings the whole pack in
• Hang still on the drop and let him circle closer
• Aim for the spine just behind the head, and use a reel or a float line
• Be aware: in tropical waters, big ones can carry ciguatera
