It’s also popular because of its sporting quality profile.

Strength

The Roosterfish is not known for its strength. It rarely exceeds 25 pounds and has a compact frame, making it perfect for small-grade tackle.

Speed

The Roosterfish is exceptionally quick and can maintain speeds of up to 42 miles per hour.

Movements

The Roosterfish is a near-surface fighter, trying to break lines with quick sprints and sudden turns.

A Roosterfish is an excellent option for first-time fishermen, proving itself to be powerful - but manageable - prey. Small-grade tackle is appropriate when chasing the Roosterfish. All rods should be properly mounted, however, to keep them steady when this creature begins to fight.
