OK yea makes sense. Cheers for the help guys!

Searched it up and it looks pretty similar but think it might be a Bearded Rock Cod actually

Caught this fish off the rocks in Sydney but no idea what it is even after looking at a website with most of the fish In NSW. I’m from the UK and this looks a lot like cod we get there but obviously it’s something different. Anyone got any ideas?

Hi guys, First post on fishraider! Just moved to Sydney on exchange for university. I was chucking out some prawns and pilchards at lureline bay yesterday and caught this fish. I’m still learning all the Australian fish so I put it in a rock pool and tried IDing it but wasn’t completely sure. I initially thought it was a black rock cod, then I thought estuary cod when looking at the photos on the way home. Either way, I put it back, just wondering if I threw away a dinner or if I got the ID right!
