Most are via spear fishermen but they can be caught on a little bit of mussel (or so I have heard). They are mostly vegetarian.

I catch mine with spear gun free diving , but have a mate that has caught them with mussel . He cuts a hole in the calp at low tide , then wates for tide come in . The other name for them is" green bone ". The fish frame has a green / blue colour when filleted . The flesh is vivid white and very morish !
