Information about School Whiting (Silago):
|
School whiting have a silver stripe along the side of their body but no dark blotch on
the pectoral fin base.
School whiting are endemic to southern regions of the Australian continental shelf.
They live close to the sea bed over sandy substrates, and normally live in depths
from the surf zone to about 80 metres.
Their diet is mainly Crustaceans, primarily amphipods and prawns and polychaete worms.
Juveniles consume mostly amphipods and polychaete worms.
Fishing for Whiting:
Whiting are generally caught using rod-and-line and handlines from shore
or by boat with live baits, such as worms, soldier crabs and yabbies
(nippers). Fresh peeled prawns can also be used.
