Omnipedia entry

Choerodon schoenleinii

Coral Zone

Blackspot tuskfish are known for their distinctive "tusks," which they use to crush hard-shelled prey like sea urchins. This trait has led to a fishing method that uses sea urchins as bait for them.

So if you see someone reel in a hook with a sea urchin on it, it doesn't necessarily mean they've caught one — it may simply mean the tuskfish got away.
