Nannygai are a different species that are caught at the bottom/Southern end and all the way around to the East Coast......up here they're either Red snapper/swallow tail or yellow-eye reds!
due to the fact that we west aussies have different names for everything there actually both a different true nannagi. the fact that we call them red snapper just makes it easier to tell the difference i belive. why we call them crimson snapper just throws another spanner in the works..
Mabey Ryan a nannagi was on holidays to perth waters to see some relitives lol .If Jay can catch a Pink snapper in PT Samson cant a true nannagi's get a bit lost to mate sorry mate just having a play with ya CHEERS SHAG
They're not true Nannygai ie what Deans holding and whilst they're all under the Centroberyx family "each fish" is still "different" and "named differently". There's only one type of true Nannygai named fish and we dont get it here. Its like most common Emperor are all Lethrinus but all have there own names also.
Yes you can get travellers Shag but they're an East Coast fish predominately and the WA species book says that also....long swim eh

What depth Dean?
I've caught a few that size around this time of year in the 40's, but normally they would be a lot wider than that.

As far as I've read:
There are three
All Centroberyx:
NANNYGAI - affinis - (CN Redfish) - purported to have a SE Oz distribution only.
NANNYGAI, BRIGHT - gerraddi - (CN Red Snapper, Bright Redfish, Bright Snapper) - south to SW and Lower West distribution.
NANNYGAI, SWALLOWTAIL - lineatus - (CN Redfish, Swallowtail) - south Oz from E to W.
