are we sure the picture of the guy holding a fish is the best one for this article? Nathan Beach 16:14, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Probably not. Seems too much like a vanity photo to me. Several of the fish in this family have similarly bad photographs. But since some people use the fish articles to find out information about sport fishing, it's not entirely inappropriate. Sometimes a bad photo is better than no photo.
There is a photo on the California Marine Sportfish site listed in the references section that could be used, but I am unsure about the copyright status (despite the claim in the article that it is public domain). Neil916 19:26, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
