It is easily recognizable by its brilliant blue color. It is cobalt or indigo blue dorsally, lightening to bright blue and white on the belly.

In spite of its voracious and predatory nature and swiftness in the water, it sometimes puts up a poor fight when hooked. Fishing methods include chumming with live or dead baits or trolling. Baits include squid, eels, mackerel herring and other live or whole fishes as well as cut baits.
