HI
I can't seem to upload a file but I think the fish is called "Jackfish". If you contact me through my email address I will send you a picture and a short synopsis. Although it is a good photo it is hard to know its size. contact me at rauvens@yahoo.com
 
I believe it is Carangoides gymnostethus, commonly called "Bludger." Jackfish is also a common name (but less often used, at least in the literature).
