I'd say flathead.


Wizadam

Donald Fisher?

Could be. But this is pretty much your average bony fish skeleton without the top and bottom fin rays and missing the whole outside or front part of the skull. So it's pretty hard to say. Is there anything specific you're seeing? I'm guessing that it's about 18inches in length and I count 22 vertebrate. Salmon typically have smaller and more vertebrate so only one I'm ruling out. But it could be most anything else in the Brisbane River, mulloway, snapper, bass, grunter, grouper, jack, tailor.

I'm going buy the shape of the head and more so the spine and fin at the end. When I have eaten them to me this very much looks like the bones left over. All the other fish you mentioned have a deeper rib-cage if that makes sense.


kylezdoherty

I can't post pics in this sub, but check out this pic of a bluefish/tailor I posted on a crosspost. I think that's just the inside of the skull we see. The thick vertebrate actually imply a deeper ribcage. I think it's just confusing because 50% is missing. A longer fish usually has thinner and smaller vertebrate. I couldn't find a pic of a flathead skeleton to compare.

Except we have the skull, spine and tail and it looks nothing like your tailor. Have you ever eaten flathead? it looks just like the pic.


kylezdoherty

No and I can't find any skeletal anatomy on them. I believe you if they look like that. Pretty hard to see any detail in the skull. Looks like it's just the cranium, and missing the upper and lower jaw. So we're only seeing the very top part of it. And it's completely missing the dorsal fin ray spine and anal fin rays. We can't tell any fin placement. We have the hyperurals but no tail fin rays so we don't know what the tail actually looked like. You could definitely be right but it looks like almost any fish spine I've found on the side of the river, I don't think there's enough of it there to say for sure.

It's pretty obvious really; it's a baby dragon before it develops its wings and legs. Until they do that they look like eels with hard scales.

I was going to joke that he's in China, but anyone who goes swimming on a rough day at a place called The Rip is just asking for trouble...


Barkers_eggs

I was down there a few months ago and watched a middle aged man with a giant beer belly attempting to boogie board in the rip. It was surreal


TerryTowelTogs

Ha ha, I hope he survived! I've not been down there but it looks like some good fishing to be had. My main barrier is having to travel through Frankston....and also being a thousand k away 😂


Barkers_eggs

I didn't hear of any drowning deaths from that particular spot on that day (point Lonsdale) but I have heard the fishing is fantastic. I've tried but never had any luck.
