The roosterfish (Nematistius pectoralis) is a fish found in the warmer shallow waters of the Pacific from Baja California to Peru. Roosterfish are a very popular sport fish admired for being strong fighters.[1] They are also important targets of local artisanal and subsistence fisheries. It is the only species in the genus Nematistius and the family Nematistiidae.[2] Their name comes from the "rooster comb", seven long spines on the dorsal fin. Roosterfish can reach over 1.6 m (5 ft 3 in) in length and over 50 kg (110 lb) in weight.[3] Despite being a very popular sport fish, Roosterfish are an understudied species.
