in New Zealand this is an easy choice, it's the common snapper. although the small ones are somewhat easy to spear, the larger ones, especially the 20 pounders are more paranoid than any fish i've head about. if they see you or hear you they are gone. to shoot them you have to pretty much be an under water sniper, creeping around rocks and not letting them anywhere near you. one very good way of getting them is to set up a burley where you can position yourself in a good sniping position. you then leave the area and come back in 20 or so minutes and if yur lucky a big moocher may have turned up.
