Overview: about flat needlefish
Fast and elusive gamefish found in estuaries and bays across NSW, QLD and WA. Target with lures or small baitfish under lights at night in 1-10m, as they're attracted to artificial illumination. Not usually eaten due to green-colored flesh, but a thrilling catch for their speed and agility.
