This flathead was amongst the blue spotted flathead and the tiger flathead we caught last weekend.
(See the report "Beaut Day! - Some Big Flathead And A "fat" Shark ")
It's shape and size (about 50cm) was very similar to the blue spot flathead, however it had a distinct pink colouring and different patterns on the caudal and pectoral fins.
I actually found a picture identical to it in a fishing book, but the book didn't identify it. The closest thing I could find on the web was a "marbled flathead"?

Does anyone know what type of flathead it is?
Here's another photo of the caudal fin.
Cheers
