  1. oyster fish

    There is some confusion around the term "oyster fish" as it could mean two completely different things: 1. It could refer to a type of fish that is found living near oyster beds. In this context, the term is often used to describe a variety of species including Oyster toadfish and Oyster cracker fish which live in and around oyster beds and are known to eat oysters. 2. It could also refer to the act of fishing for oysters. In this context, "oyster fish" isn't a species of fish but rather an activity, i.e., to fish for oysters. This involves dedicated harvest methods such as diving, dredging or using tongs to bring up the oysters. There's no specifically named "oyster fish" species. So the general definition can be either a colloquial term for a fish that eats or lives among oysters, or an activity of oyster harvesting.
