There our nets brought up some fine fish samples: dolphinfish with azure fins, gold tails, and flesh that's unrivaled in the entire world, wrasse from the genus Hologymnosus that were nearly denuded of scales but exquisite in flavor, knifejaws with bony beaks, yellowish albacore that were as tasty as bonito, all fish worth classifying in the ship's pantry.
Allí las redes recogieron hermosos especímenes de peces, como unas coríferas con las aletas azuladas y la cola de oro, cuya carne no tiene rival; hologimnosos casi desprovistos de escamas y también de un sabor exquisito; ostorrincos de mandíbula ósea; todos ellos dignos de la mesa del Nautilus.
