It is a type of finger mark bream. I am not familiar with the finger mark spot being so close to the tail, so I am not sure of the exact name. But definitely a finger mark bream.
You probably have a local name for them. The locals there might call them finger mark snapper.

Hi there guys, I'm not sure where you all are but here in South Africa this fish is very abundant and caught in rocky areas and around sandbars in choppy white water. We call them Blacktail!

The legend behind this fish is that when it's maker was finished making this fish. He picked it up by the tail to lower it in to the water. Thus the black finger marks.
I agree with the name Black tail.
It puts up a very good fight for it's size.
