Very nice drewish. It's amazing how different some of these fish look from the ones we got in other areas. The redline looks very slender.
I do need a new camera. Its on my long wishlist. I've noticed that the ones I get are more slender than the ones I see others post.
Is the color true on the adult blotchside? The color on the top band of the first dorsal is yellow-orange rather than red, or maybe I've only the species in the spring when color is truly red? And yeah, good pictures.
Thanks. I think I mentioned that on the ride back. Now that I know where they are at, I'll try to get some spring pics next year. Hopefully we can get an underwater camera next time out to capture some pics while snorkeling.

The tangerine is beautiful. I'd love to find some of them, but I gotta push further south for that.
