Caught this one just inside burmese waters asked the guide and all he said was purple fish
Over all I caught dogtooth,yellowfinn,barracuda,wahoo,tigershark,lepard shark,gt's,snapper,tiny coral trount, one small sailfish,mudcrab,got chased by a wild pig on one island chased by a angry one eyed elephant on another got to see some amazing scenery,didnt catch as many fish as I wanted but the other guys were mainly interested in scuba diving but after seeing a 16-18 foot mako jump out of the water near a tuna school there was no way I was diveing.brother in law also made a hasty boarding of the boat after seeing a very large bull shark in the water 10 foot below him never seen someone get on board a boat so fast with full scuba gear on

Triggerfish
I'd say Redtooth Triggerfish, but can't be 100% sure. One thing I'm sure of is that I bet the flesh was blood red and as tough as if you ate it! Saw some silly buggers bring a big one in at Gnaraloo this year, waste of time.

nah Adam this one was
nah Adam this one was released even though the boat guy wanted it,the idea was to catch many species of fish but also release as many as well

Possibly a Redtooth
Andrew, I agree with Adam - a triggerfish - at this stage, I'll put my money on a Redtooth Triggerfish by the tail and 'chin' area, as well as the overall colouring.
