Ladyfish, also known as tenpounders, are a saltwater fish that is found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world. The ladyfish has a long, slender body with a forked tail. It is silver in color with dark spots on its sides. Ladyfish can grow to be up to two feet long and weigh up to 10 pounds.
Ladyfish are popular among anglers because they are good fighters when hooked. They are also considered to be good eating, although some people find their flesh to be too oily. In addition to being eaten by humans, ladyfish are also preyed upon by larger fish, birds, and marine mammals.
