Giant Hawkfish
Cirrhitus rivulatus

Giant Moray
Gymnothorax javanicus
The giant moray is one of the largest moray eels, reaching over 2 m and a heavy, thick-bodied build. It inhabits tropical Indo-Pacific reefs and rocky drop-offs, where it hides by day and hunts fish and crustaceans at night.
Giant Trevally
Caranx ignobilis
Giant Trevally is a powerful coastal jack that grows very large and hunts aggressively around reefs, drop-offs, and surf zones. It is a prized sport fish, but larger individuals can carry ciguatera risk in tropical areas.

Sparus aurata
Gilthead Seabream (Sparus aurata) is a Mediterranean and eastern Atlantic sparid prized for table quality and sport. It is a coastal fish that feeds on shellfish and crustaceans on sandy and seagrass bottoms, and it is often farmed and stocked outside its native range.

Globefish
Diodon nicthemerus
Globefish (Diodon nicthemerus) is a poorly documented porcupinefish species with global occurrence records but limited species-specific biological and angling information. Like other Diodon, it is a spiny, inflatable marine fish that likely lives near reefs and feeds on hard-shelled invertebrates.
Gold Blotch Grouper
Epinephelus costae
Gold Blotch Grouper (Epinephelus costae) is a large reef-associated grouper of the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean. It favors rocky reefs and coastal drop-offs, and is mostly a solitary ambush predator feeding on fish and crustaceans.
Golden Damselfish
Amblyglyphidodon aureus
Golden Damselfish (Amblyglyphidodon aureus) is a small Indo-Pacific reef fish with a bright yellow body that often hovers among branching corals and rubble. It is more of an aquarium/reef-viewing species than a target fish, and angling information is limited.
Golden Rabbitfish
Siganus guttatus
Golden rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus) is a tropical Indo-Pacific herbivore often found on shallow reefs, lagoons, and seagrass edges. It is edible and can be taken by anglers, but handling care matters because the dorsal, anal, and pelvic spines are venomous.
Golden Trevally
Gnathanodon speciosus
Golden trevally is a coastal jack found on reefs, lagoons, sand flats, and around piers across the Indo-Pacific. Juveniles often school under jellyfish or float with drifting debris; adults hunt crustaceans and small fish over open structure.
Goldentail Moray
Gymnothorax miliaris
Goldentail Moray is a tropical Atlantic reef eel with a yellow to brown body and a bright yellow tail. It hides in holes and crevices by day and hunts at night, feeding mainly on small fishes and crustaceans.
