| Comments |
Commonly caught by shore anglers (Ref. 27121, 36731). Taken as bycatch in commercial fisheries (Ref. 27121). Edible, but not popular as a food fish and rather than leaving carcasses to rot, fishers should be encouraged to release the catch unharmed (Ref. 12484). Also Ref. 5485, 5578, 12484, 54854. |
