Fast and powerful tuna found in bays off QLD, WA and TAS, growing up to 1m and 12kg. Target with small to medium jigs, spoons and metal slices in 10-100m, often schooled and feeding on squid and smaller fish. Good to eat with a high oil content, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, making it a healthy catch.
