0 fishesh Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I think it is a purple Rock cod http://australianmuseum.net.au/Purple-Rockcod-Epinephelus-cyanopodus-Richardson-1846 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 willy1818 Posted January 9, 2015 Author Share Posted January 9, 2015 Thanks, does look like a Purple Rock Cod. I can let my grandsons know, they were interested in what it was. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Blackfish Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 My guess would also be a Purple Cod, though my last guess was way off the mark. "Epinephelus cyanopodus" I know of one taken at Lake Maquarie last year. Certainly unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dave_ Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Interesting fish. They're said to be excellent eating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
