Hogfish are a super unique and tasty species that belong to the diverse Labridae family which includes fish known as wrasses. This family of fish has over 600 species and are most common in subtropical and tropical waters however have a few members can be found more temperate temperatures like the California sheepshead (S. pulcher) in the Pacific and the Tautog (T. onitis) in the Northern Atlantic. The hogfish is the largest of the Western Atlantic wrasses (reaching lengths of up to 3 feet!) and while diving the reefs in the Southern Atlantic and Caribbean you may stumble upon their smaller, more colorful cousins the Spanish hogfish which is yellow and purple and the Cuban hogfish which is red and yellow in color.
