OK, this is a tad confusing with posts in two places, it is NOT a Sweep, it IS a Blackfish (Girella Tricuspedata) they will not be dark or have stripes if caught at night or over light sand, when they are light they do look a bit like their relatives the Silver Drummer, but they are very different, caught thousands of them at night on Prawns and Nippers, they are a very common catch if you know how and when to fish for them at night.
My bet is silver drummer. Any rocks around where you were fishing?

Yeah they can be pretty nasty if you try eating them whole. I once cut my teeth on a savage lamb chop
Yes - Looks like a silver drummer - If it tasted like crap , thats what my money would on.
