Notas Young live inshore areas after leaving weed cover. Adults occupy mainly pelagic zones to which they are recruited with maturity at about 50 cm TL. Moves from place to place (up to 10 km per day) and tends to concentrate to the abundance of its main prey (Ref. 52862). In Zambian waters, species are abundant during rainy season, between November and May. Immature fish are rarely caught by pelagic fisheries and are conditioned to stay near shore, where they are commonly caught (Ref. 52862).
