[Fish ID Needed (striped grunter)]

I to recon it's a Striped Perch Pelates Sexlineatus.

Cresent have a different Dorsal.

[What fish is this?]

I would guess either

Stripies. Microcanthus strigatus.

OR

Eastern Striped Grunter. Pelates sexlineatus

[BFTs Exist!]

Awesome capture and a awesome read.

Thanks.

[Fish id please! (White eared Parma/ crested weedfish)]

Second one could possibly be my mother in law.

How about that Tef1on, my wife and your wife must be sisters.

[Fish id please! (White eared Parma/ crested weedfish)]

My guess ...

1) White-Eared Palma/Scalyfin Parma microlepis

2) Crested Weedfish. Cristiceps australis

[Whats this fish?(Darktail Snapper )]

No take species I think as well.

[Whats this fish?(Darktail Snapper )]

Looks like a Paddletail Lutianus gibbous Houdini.

[Milson's Point]

I recon the Wrasse you have is a Gunthers Wrasse. Pseudolabrus guentheri

[Strange fish(False Trevally)]

I've finally found out what it is. Looks like it's a False Trevally (Lactarius Lactarius). They grow to 40cm and occur around FNQ and NT top end, also in other countries. Definitely a strange fish. http://www.fishbase.org/summary/36

I vote for Dave.

1+ for Lactarius Lactarius

[Any Ideas(TILEFISH)]

If I had a Guess, I would say

Pink Tilefish Branchiostegus wardi

[Garfish balmoral]

Dear diary ... its starting to rain. Buggar.

[Going to Fad it first time!]

Check BOM.

Doesn't look real promising.

[Port hacking. Mixing it up.]

Not much for tea but a great day of memories

Awesome there with the Daughter Mate and memories just get better with time.

I had a great session with the daughter on Blue Swimmer Crabs over Easter, up at Brisbane waters so it was with hand lines, priceless.

As for the Tailor,couple of cuts across the thickest part then fresh grilled with a bit of butter........ Yum.

[Brighton Amateur Fishing Club?]

Thanks billfisher, I wonder how long the members will be able to keep it going. Looks like a developer's dream property for a big residential development.

Cheers

Paikea

Funny you should mention that. What I heard it was a set up that sunk the Club.

Have a bit of a Google around and if your sceptical like me it smells.

Oh and Joes mentioned ... surprise.

[Disappointed by divers]

Stupid, Inconsiderate and arrogant people are just that.

People at the boat ramp that don't want to wait their turn, having a boat troll thru your lovely burley trail while floater baiting for Yellowfin, fishing at a spot (wharf or rocks) when you walk a fish over to your bag to have someone jump into the spot you were just fishing, spinning into a school of fish and someone trolls thru the school, Anchoring up to a spot when a Commercial boat of bubblies turn up and anchor within a few metres, Oh and don't let me start on the FADs.

Fisherman, Spearos, Scuba divers. The Stupid, Inconsiderate and Arrogant wreck it for every one.

And thats my RANT for the day.

[ID please (Silver Biddy)]

You have a Silver Biddy. Gerres subfasciatus.

[Sydney harbour bream, reds and unknown crab]

You got yourself a Ridged Swimming Crab. Charybdis natator.

[Rocking Fishing Catch(Kelpfish and Wirrah)]

Yeah Mousse, first one is a Eastern Kelpfish.

[Rocking Fishing Catch(Kelpfish and Wirrah)]

You may find a Cale (both Rock and Herring) are different critters.

[Rocking Fishing Catch(Kelpfish and Wirrah)]

Eastern Kelpfish for the first and Wirrah Cod for second.

[Leather jackets( Parasites. Isopods)]

We used to call them "Doctors" when Blackfishing Paikea.

[Leather jackets( Parasites. Isopods)]

Though ..... if's it not a 6 Spine the only other one I could think of is a Yellowfin Jacket.

[Surprise catch...]

Awesome fish there there Dan and you better get used to it, "The daughter out fishes Dad"

Well it happens in my house
