its a seabass not a grouper. i found it on google so its probably fake.

Looks real to me. Look at the blood on the rope at the tail section. Not an uncommon fish really. Maybe now, but the photo looks alittle older. Maybe back int he 70's from the look at the tackle, and rod.

Thats a Goliath Grouper, formerly known as a Jewfish. Yes, they grow that big.
-
yes maybe it's a goliath grouper but they will always be jewfish to me and that photo is real.

There was a fellow a few years ago that shot one while in SCUBA with one of those underway thingy's with the a line...anyway, the grouper dove, unfortunately the divers ankle was wrapped in the line and they never saw him again. The hunter became the prey.

when I was young we used to spear them while free diving. the key was a long lead of 1/4" nylon line. once the beast was speared you shot to the surface and hooked up the 1/4" line to additional 1/4" line which was secured to our truck tire inner tube(s). you were still in for a several hour drag to who knows where.
I cringe at what we did as kids.
you don't see many that big anymore, at least I haven't in over fifteen years.
