    Just in case you is not up with the lingo mate, a squire is a juvenile snapper.

    The first is definatley a squire / juvenile snapper.

    The second looks remarkably like a twin of my orange shouldered wrase which I have as a pet in my marine aquarium...

    Is a whip tail a common name? Perhaps they are marketed as an orange shouldered wrase in the marine aquarium industry?? Perhaps I am mistaken... Just a thought...

    Regards,

    Brad.

    Second one is Whiptail and dont be tempted to eat them.
    Fusilier family and known to have Ciguitera. (So the experts say)
    Good bait but

    first is a squire....second is a whiptail..............definitely great live bait for anything that swims fast in the bay.
