摘要:Due to their poor reputation as a food fish, Samson fish are rarely targeted by recreational
anglers for their eating qualities. Nevertheless, this species is common in recreational catches
on the west and south coasts of WA due to its abundance and broad distribution. Often this
is as a by-catch when targeting other species such as dhufish and pink snapper, with many
boat fishers regarding Samson fish as a nuisance fish. It is mainly targeted during fishing
competitions because of its high point value, and by catch-and-release sportsfishers.
