Three hand carved and painted Red Snappers on a hand spun string.
With is striking red markings this beautiful fish can be found in most reef waters and the warmer waters of the western Atlantic near Florida.
Delicious tasting, it is much prized by fishermen with the record weight reaching 20 kilos. Favouring rocky shallows, it feeds on small plankton when young, switching to shrimp, squid, small fish and crabs found on the reef bottom as an adult, which may account for its delicate flavour.
