What is this??? (Ling)


Question

Posted

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?

Pretty sure it's  a rock ling

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

The "Common" name is a Ling, well that's what I've always called them or as  @dirvin21 said, Rock Ling (plus a few others)

... but the "Official Common name" 🤷‍♂️ is Largetooth Beardie.
