Not sure of exact species. Broad body, silver mirror like scales, up to 8 lbs. found in larger rivers of south america. Looks like a sheephead. even has a rock in its skull.
Exist in large highly migratory schools, usually in deep water eddies. 3 way rig, shrimp. straight down.
Highly valued as a food fish by residents.
best,
