A southern black bream caught from Snowy River, Australia
Porgy is the common name in Australia for any fish which belongs to the family Sparidae. They are also called bream. Porgies live in shallow temperate marine waters and are bottom-dwelling carnivores. Most species possess grinding, molar-like teeth.[1] They are often good eating fish, particularly the gilt-head bream and the dentex.[2]
