  1. Blackfish's post in Fish ID please! (Bluelined Shrimpgoby) was marked as the answer   
    Ok, I've heard back from a mate.
    He's calling it a "Bluelined Shrimpgoby"  Cryptocentrus bulbiceps and that's good enough for me.
    Now here's the twist. It maybe the same critter as  a "Y-Bar Shrimpgoby" Cryptocentrus fasciatus 
    Though neither seem to be found this far south till both @twoblues and @Scratchie caught them. 
  2. Blackfish's post in Shoals of fish in South Coast Lake (Port Jackson Glassfish) was marked as the answer   
    @Holls the experts got back to me and it’s a Port Jackson Glassfish or as Neolm just said, Glassies would be the more common name. 
  3. Blackfish's post in Anyone recognise this? (Rock Cale) was marked as the answer   
    Rock Cale there gyeatman.
     
  4. Blackfish's post in Strange Crustacean (Mantis Shrimp) was marked as the answer   
    It's a Mantis Shrimp there BG.
    Now there's lots of different Types, around 125 in Australia so as to that one, got Nuffin mate.
    I found them up the NSW coast living in the zone where I've been Beach Worming so they turn up everywhere.
     
  5. Blackfish's post in Some Type of Cod? (Seven Bar Grouper/ Bar Cod) was marked as the answer   
    I recon its a Sevenbar Groper/ Banded Rock Cod/ Bar Cod all the same "Epinephelus ergastularius"
    The Black Rock cod has only a Spot/Saddle on the Tail Wrist where the above has the band all the way.
  6. Blackfish's post in Fish ID Please (Striped Cardinalfish) was marked as the answer   
    My guess would be a Striped Cardinalfish (Ostorhinchus fasciatus)
    Happy to be corrected though 🙂
  7. Blackfish's post in What fish is this? (Black Rabbitfish/Spinefoot) was marked as the answer   
    Goes by a few common names but its  Black Rabbitfish and those spines are poisonous so be very careful when handling them.
  8. Blackfish's post in Fish ID please (Eastern Frogfish) was marked as the answer   
    I recon you have a Eastern Frogfish.
    Their Whiskery little Tassels they have aren't as prominent when out of the water.
  9. Blackfish's post in Saltwater Catfish (Cobbler/Catfish) was marked as the answer   
    Hard to say because of the state of decomposition, but my guess would also be Estuary Cobbler.
    I believe they loose their colour  after they've been dead awhile.
  10. Blackfish's post in some sort of cod?? (Chinaman Rockcod) was marked as the answer   
    My guess Dave would be Chinaman Rockcod  "Epinephelus rivulets".
    Another species for you Dave 👍

    Second is what Yowie said. Pikey Bream
    Third Javelin Fish
    Forth .. not to sure as there is a couple of Croaker/Jewfish species up that way.

  14. Blackfish's post in Fish ID (Eastern Smooth Boxfish) was marked as the answer

  15. Blackfish's post in Fish Identification (Threadfin Silver Biddy) was marked as the answer

  22. Blackfish's post in fish confirmation (Wirrah Cod) was marked as the answer   
    I personally have never heard them called Brown Spotted Rock Cod.
    Certainly Wirrah or Old Boots or the "proper name" if there is such a thing, Eastern Wirrah Cod as there is a Western Wirrah cod.
    And as every one said pretty common. Ive never eaten on but my understanding no the best on the plate.
