0 noelm 714 Posted Tuesday at 04:19 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:19 AM Pretty common catch around the rocks, pretty ordinary eating, if you go diving you will see hundreds of them. Link to post Share on other sites

Fist time spear fishers see hundreds of them, think they have done well spearing one, only to cut it open and smell shit*. As kids we called them shit* fish. That is the reason there are so many, no-one wants them. 🤣 1 Link to post Share on other sites
0 wazatherfisherman 1,318 Posted Wednesday at 01:49 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:49 PM Bain of the Luderick fishers they are known as "Cockie's or Birds"- because they look like parrot's mouths, they usually feed right along the edge of the rocks and often will "surf" a wave up on the edge to grab cabbage or weed. Similar teeth and diet to Luderick. It's a little known fact that they are very good bait for Mulloway- to catch one, you hold your float right in close to where water runs off and use either weed or a small cabbage bait and Luderick style gear and fish about 3 meters deep under the float. Is it a coincidence that most baits that Mulloway like have a really strong odour? Pike, Yellowtail, Cockies, Luderick etc 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites
