you guys just couldn't hang in Southern Louisiana. Hang there all the time, but don't have much trouble catching trout and reds so I don't have to eat the other stuff. don't recall many Cajuns eating it either, but some do I guess.
The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.

Spanish mackerel makes great sashimi.
Not interested in even trying jack crevealle, hard head, gafftop ( hear all the time how good they are but not interested in getting past the slime) ladyfish ( might be my least favorite fish)
Prime fish for me are small mid slot reds (tacos, half shell, baked, fried) flounder, trout. 95% of the time, this is what I catch. Croaker is great if big enough.
Don't eat much fresh water fish. Nothing farmed raised

Has anyone tried stingray wings? I have always thought it was a nice chunk of meat when I was cutting them up for shark bait.

I'd be willing to bet that many people have eaten stingray, just didn't know it. "sea scallops" have been found for years (by myself included) to be stingray at many seafood places. it's pretty good actually, if not overcooked.

Kingfish Spanish Macs Sheepshead Skeeter, I'm gonna guess you never have actually tried sheepshead. Once you get past the fact that they are wearing human dentures....It's one of the best fish I ever ate. A little hard to clean, but well worth it. And man what a blast to catch!

I'd pass on Trout/Reds for Sheepsheads.

Gulf fish species I have tried that are readily caught or bought that I will eat gladly in order of preference:
Red Snapper Grouper Flounder Blackfin Tuna Sheepshead Mahi Mahi Speckled Trout Drum Redfish Croaker Whiting Spanish Mackerel Bluefish King Mackerel
I also want to try sting ray. Anything not on my list I have tried and disliked, or just won't eat for various reasons.
