Dusky Flathead

The dusky flathead is a large predatory fish and the largest member of the family Platycephalidae. They are found in estuaries, estuarine lakes, and coastal bays on the east coast of Australia. Flatheads are dorsally compressed; their body is wide but flattened and very low in height. Their eyes are on the top of their head, giving excellent binocular vision, which helps them to attack overhead prey.
