Bloggsy Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Caught this one off Bermagui where we were getting Snapper and Morwong looked a bit like a Morwong but had some light grey stripes across it's body which don't show up in photo a bit like a Trevally I'm thinking maybe a Silver Trevally?

0 Isaac Ct Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Definitely a Silver Trevally mate. They travel in schools and if you catch one, drop another line down as I will often get double hook-ups on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 noelm Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Silver Trevally, distinguished by the black spot on the gill cover, very common catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Hoods Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 There used to be big schools along the east coast usually over winter which were great fun. They go hard & are fun to catch. However any resource has usually been netted into oblivion so not as common any more. They are a good table fish. Surprisingly good as raw fish and good for fish dishes like curry or fish stew etc. 3-4kg "blurters" go as hard as Kingies. Try them thinly sliced raw on a bed on wasabi with your choice of garnish.

0 noelm Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Not too sure too many Trevally are netted, they live in rocky terrain, so netting is not so easy to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
