Main Ref. Gershwin, L.A., 2005
Remarks Specimens have been caught nearshore during onshore winds but observed to be more common offshore. Often occurs in a band, about 9 m deep. Most often caught during the penultimate hour before slack tide, with higher abundance on a falling tide than on a rising tide (Ref. 61059).
