Blue Chromis
Azurina cyanea

Blue Rockfish
Sebastes mystinus
Blue Rockfish is a west coast rockfish that lives on rocky reefs and kelp beds, often in schools over high-relief structure. It feeds on small fishes and crustaceans and is commonly taken by anglers fishing near bottom structure.
Blue Runner
Caranx crysos
Blue runner is a fast, schooling jack found in warm coastal waters, often around reefs, wrecks, piers, and open bays. It is a hard-fighting but generally minor table fish; in many areas it is taken as bait or bycatch more often than targeted for sport.
Blue Weed-whiting
Haletta semifasciata
Blue Weed-whiting (Haletta semifasciata) is a poorly documented wrasse-like fish from southern Australian waters. It is associated with vegetated coastal habitats, and most biological and angling details are sparse in the literature compared with common game species.

The Blue-and-yellow Fusilier (Caeso teres) is a tropical reef fish recognized by its striking bicolor pattern—bright blue forward fading to vivid yellow on the rear body and tail. This schooling species inhabits coral reefs throughout the Indo-Pacific, feeding primarily on zooplankton in the water column. While not a major sport fish, it is pursued by light-tackle anglers in tropical regions and p
Blue-barred Parrotfish
Scarus ghobban
Blue-barred Parrotfish (Scarus ghobban) is a reef-associated tropical parrotfish with vivid blue bars and a beaklike mouth used to scrape algae from coral and rock. It is common on Indo-Pacific reefs and lagoon habitats, and large adults are often taken only incidentally rather than targeted.
Blue-green Chromis
Chromis viridis
Blue-green Chromis is a small Indo-Pacific damselfish common on outer reef slopes and lagoon drop-offs, usually schooling above branching corals. It is an omnivore that picks zooplankton from the water column and is popular in aquaria rather than as a sport fish.
Blue-headed Wrasse
Thalassoma amblycephalum
A small Indo-Pacific wrasse with a blue to blue-green head and a more yellowish body, usually seen over coral-rich reef slopes and lagoon habitats. It feeds on small benthic invertebrates and is a common, active reef species rather than a targeted game fish.
Blue-spotted Cornetfish
Fistularia commersonii
Blue-spotted Cornetfish is a long, pipe-like reef fish with a blue-spotted brown body and an extremely extended tail filament. It is a marine predator of shallow tropical reefs and lagoons; it is not a common target for anglers.
