Caught mangroves off the Jetty at port a several times. I agree tuna is as good as it gets. Didn't include it earlier because I've never actually caught one.
I disagree on snapper being the same as maui specs or grouper.
You can put a fresh snapper fillet on the grill with just a little salt and pepper. You swear the thing had been swimming in butter

Fence, a life time ago I worked at a research facility off the coast of Bermuda and we fished for tuna with a 60 ton crane. We would lace a BIG hook in a flying fish and connect it to the hook on the crane and skip it across the water just like a flying fish. Tuna would knock the heII out of it and it would be boom up/cable up and set it on the cargo deck before they would even know they were out of the water. We sold them for beer money.
That's almost how we fished for blue crabs in norfolk. Big mesh basket on a crane hung over the side just below the surface. When a pod of them came swimming by we gave the crane an up 5. Sure made a nice change from the standard fare.
