Deepwater Flathead

Fellow in the Club I'm in caught this Flathead in around 300 metres off Ocean Reef.  It was just shy of 2kg.  It's not in any ID books I have, but I did see a Fisheries Research video with the underwater baited cameras and saw what they referred to as a Deepwater Flathead.  I'm guessing that's what it is.

Anyone able to confirm?

Fool's Barra

 I had never seen or heard of the fool's barra in 20-odd years of fishing perth metro. Then I read a thread on this forum identifying a picture of a fish as a "fool's barra". I kid you not, two days later, I was fishing at a location I have fished 30-40 times and the first fish I pull in a Fool's Barra. I couldn't believe it. Anyway,  can someone please help me with the species proper name?

Fish id

 school mackerel?


ID Please

Any ideas?

 

Looks like the illegitimate love child from a threesome between a whiting, a wrasse and a pirahna?

Same body shape as whiting, colours like a wrasse and a seriously large head/teeth for it's body size.

Caught near Garden Island a while ago. Needless to say it went back.

 

Thanks, BD
