Banded Archerfish
Toxotes jaculatrix
A remarkable brackish mangrove and estuary ambush fish that can fire water jets to knock insects and other small prey from overhanging vegetation. Banded Archerfish are best known from Southeast Asian and northern Australian coastal waters, where they hunt at the surface.
Barred Mudskipper
Periophthalmus argentilineatus
A semi-terrestrial mudskipper of mangrove mudflats and tidal creeks, this species spends much of its time out of water and is closely tied to soft intertidal habitats. It is not a typical food or sport fish, and angling interest is mostly incidental or for observation.
Bay Anchovy
Anchoa mitchilli
Bay anchovy is a small, schooling estuarine anchovy common in bays, tidal rivers, and nearshore coastal waters. It feeds mainly on plankton and tiny crustaceans, and serves as important forage for larger fish.
Big-scale Sand Smelt
Atherina boyeri
Big-scale Sand Smelt is a small, schooling atherinid that lives in coastal shallows and estuaries, often near sandy or muddy bottoms. It feeds on zooplankton and tiny benthic invertebrates and can be locally abundant, but it is not usually a primary sport target.
Black Bream
Acanthopagrus butcheri
Black Bream (Acanthopagrus butcheri) is an estuarine sparid native to southern Australia, especially in sheltered bays, estuaries, and lower freshwater reaches. It feeds on benthic invertebrates, crabs, worms, and mollusks, and is a popular light-tackle target where local regulations allow.
Black Goby
Gobius niger
The black goby is a small benthic coastal goby found on soft bottoms in shallow marine and estuarine waters. It spends much of its time resting on the substrate, darting out to pick small invertebrates from sand, mud, and seagrass edges.
Blackchin Tilapia
Sarotherodon melanotheron
Blackchin tilapia is an euryhaline African cichlid now established in many tropical and subtropical coastal waters and estuaries. It thrives in warm, low-salinity bays, lagoons, mangroves, canals, and brackish marshes, often in turbid, vegetation-lined water.
Boddart's Blue-spotted Mudskipper
Boleophthalmus boddarti
A semi-terrestrial mudskipper of mangrove and tidal mudflat edges, Boddart's blue-spotted mudskipper spends much of its time on exposed mud and in shallow burrows. It grazes and picks small invertebrates from the surface and is not a typical sport target.
Boxlip Mullet
Oedalechilus labeo
Boxlip Mullet is a coastal mullet with a thick, protruding upper lip adapted for grazing and suction feeding on bottom growth. It occurs in marine to brackish waters and is mostly of interest to anglers as bycatch or a light-tackle bait species rather than a primary gamefish.
Broadnosed Pipefish
Syngnathus typhle
Broadnosed Pipefish is a slender syngnathid of sheltered coastal waters, often seen upright among eelgrass and other vegetation. It uses camouflage and a tubular snout to pick tiny crustaceans from the water and plants.
Checkered Puffer
Sphoeroides testudineus
The Checkered Puffer is a small pufferfish found in coastal waters, estuaries, and mangrove-associated habitats across tropical and subtropical western Atlantic and Caribbean regions. It is a toxin-bearing species that inflates when threatened and is not a typical food fish.
