I don't know much about your fishery but you got me wondering if you may have got two different fish there. The larger one looks like a close relative of our Totoaba and the smaller ones look closer to our Corvina. Totoabas get much larger then Corvina but the way to tell them apart is their tails. Your big fish has the same tail as our giant totoaba.



While the smaller fish have the tails that look more like our Corvina.
