TRIGGERFISH - Triggers are absolutely ravenous feeders, relentless in their attacks upon anything they perceive
as food. Although the mouth is small, the jaws are provided with strong, sharp teeth, and triggerfishes can deliver a
painful bite. The pelvic fins are reduced to a small, bony nubbin at the tip of the long depressible pelvic bone on the
ventral midline of the belly. Triggerfish swim by undulating the soft dorsal and anal fins, and use their tail fin only when
they are in a hurry.

They aren't terrific fighters, but they will readily take a hook and their table quality is superb. This makes them an ideal
target for anglers, particularly those looking for a nice meal. It is not a strong swimmer and propels itself through the water
by waving its large dorsal and anal fins as opposed to its tail. They an unusual fish to watch swim and you wouldn't confuse
them with any other species.
