A friend and his dog, plus me and my fish, by the way english is my second language, can you tell me if the name weak fish is correct or are they white sea bass?

I think in the US we would call that a corvina. I believe that weakfish is a common name used for corvina in Costa Rica. Or corvina is a common name for Costa Rican weakfish in the US. Depends on your point of reference :)

In the US there is a species referred to as a weakfish (spotted sea trout) that is related to the corvina. Thus I believe that weakfish or corvina are good names for your fish.

Congrats again, that thing is a beauty!
