Tropical pelagic of northern Australia — found smashing baitfish along beaches, headlands, creek mouths and inshore reefs. Targeted with stickbaits, poppers and metal slugs cast at boiling schools. Fast, leapy fights and excellent on light spin.
Generally fished with medium tackle — match gear to the conditions and the size of fish you expect.
Seasons shift with water temperature and local conditions, so check recent reports before a trip.
