I was out of town last year, but someone local sent me a photo of ribbonfish they were catching in a creek mouth up here near Melbourne. Date of the photo is 2021-11-18, so they must head up creeks to spawn around that time. I believe he said they were catching a lot of them.

Interesting, I have a buddy who found them near a boat ramp in an 8ft deep x 30ft pocket surrounded by 3ft shallow waters over in the Thousand Islands area -- weird fish.
