It's a Hildakeeter, named after the intrepid South African angler, Hilda Keet, she and her husband Ken, are well known for trawling the Persian Gulf in an attempt to beat there arch fishing enemy, John Webster's previous colossal catches in the gulf. If you cook this fish in tinfoil with lemon butter, It's soooo tough to eat.
