Maldive Fish Guide
Bigeye Jacks
As the name implies, they have big eyes. Well, I guess they look big against the silver body. Their latin name is Caranx sexfasciatus and as a shoaling species, you you usually see them together in their hundreds. A species that will come quite close to people while feeding, Jacks make great subjects for photographs in darker conditions where an underwater flash can highlight their body sheen.
However, try and get movement toward and away from you. Photos of them all moving left to right somehow lack impact.
