Just curious. I'm personally not that fond of cooked striper meat. It tastes better raw. :hihi:

Squeets (weakfish) are my favorite.

I would have included cod, but these days they are really an offshore catch.

Fluke are my favorite. All white meat and when fried and coked right, it is a delish.

Notaro, you put Coke on your Fluke ? :confused:

Doesn't that numb the palate ?

black sea bass =:drool:

WeeWee.. you forgot to put holdover bass up there on the poll A totally different taste all together i'd imagine:yak:

Fluke hands down! Never tried weakfish or sea bass though.

Fluke but tautog a close second,ok now I,m hungry.

I like a plate full of fried smelts with a little lemon, some frys with ketchup, cole slaw and a cold beer.

salmon

fluke is best inshore and cod/pollack offshore .

Aw dude, I just ate lunch :yak:

Wow I feel Deprived (or is it Depraved....Nah Its Deprived :D )

The only one on the list that I've had is Striper.

Hard to beat fluke. I like it with italian bread crumbs and fried in a no stick pan with little or no fat. then with lemon squeezed over it!

I enjoy seabass cooked whole on the grill with some garlic and ginger and a generous coating of sesame oil.

Actually, I have to say that black sea bass is a close second. My favorite is crispy-fried Chinese style. :drool:

1st prize, Fluke!!! Is the best!! 2nd, is a tie for Seabass & Cod

No one likes to eat bluefish.

I like Blue fish, as long as it is freash!! But this thread was for your favorite fish to eat.

Conger eel is inshore....seabass is next.

try this again.. sea bass.

i meant to say cooked. not coked.

ya right :laughs:

Conger eel? Have you tried it? I don't think I ever have. I bet it has quite a slab of meat on it..

I guess my order is something like this but I will eat them all.

fluke, seabass, striped bass, tog, weaks,bonito, blues, scup

fresh harpooned grilled swordfish is my overall favorite followed by black and blue bluefin then the inshore stuff....

I've had conger eel a few times. Ugly critters.

I think I like American Eel better. Conger flesh is a little more "grainy" IMO.

Is conger eel the same as ocean pout? I like pout chowder or fried pout. They are ugly but tasty.

I never caught a true conger eel. My brother has caught a few cod fishing, big silver eel about 4 feet long. Never tried it. I like monk tails.

I think ocean pout are distinct from conger eel. They both taste the same to me. Both usually have an olive/greenish complexion.

I think the silvery fish you are talking about are tile fish (?) and are mostly caught in 300+ feet of water offshore. They are very tasty but sadly found to be very high in mercury (like tuna, shark, and swordfish).

No, not a tilefish. He caught congers around Block Island. Not ocean pout.

I like winter flounder also. Harbor pollack if gutted and quickly iced make nice chowder.

My brother is on a business trip to Norway...he met up with some fellows who like to fish...here is his email (check this fish out!!)
Hi Jim,
I am in Norway this week, and wanted to say hi.
It in an interesting place, the people here are just like you.
They like to fish, and ski. :)
I have been eating fish everyday.
The guy that took us out to dinner the first night here, recommended a local fish called a steinbit. He said it translates to "stone jaws". I found a picture of it on the internet today, and couldn't believe that is what I ate. It was really good, white meat like a bass.
Here is the link

Wolf fish is tasty too.

Love striper, fluke is yum and last year I finally had trout and black seabass. You can have the trout, but the sea bass was just too yummy, in fact I've got to go get me some more of those soon.

striper
fried striper, striper chowder, baked striper, grilled striper, striper gumbo, striper hash, creamed striper, smoked striper, blackened striper, etc etc

salt gotta be mahi mahi, fresh great lakes yellow perch...mmmmmm:p

Jumbo shrimp wrapped in Fluke wrapped in bacon pan fried :uhuh:

Umm fried striper sandwiches and homemade tartar sauce.

i heard some people are eating dogfish by boiling the meat, they said its good :eek: it prob taste like skate.:rolleyes:

when is the next leg? victor, i want to try that one....:D :drool:

ive eaten dogfish despite them pissin through their skin and u know wut it is actually tasty ;o aunt made it in this stew she does with fish "moqueca" brazillian dish and it was very good eating ;o if u can ignore the pissing through the skin of course :) never tried em fried mebbe they are good

Dogfish is quite tasty if bled and gutted promptly.

Sharks and skates don't have kidneys to excrete urine - so if you don't bleed/gut 'em right away you'll get an awful ammonia taste/smell.

I'm suprised more folks have not mentioned blackfish/tautog
Cut em in chunks and fry them, they're amazing. They eat mostly crabs and mussels, good stuuf

crafty's drunkard tautog stew is a delish. i need that recipe for x-mas for my girlfriend...but she is gonna be in chicago...:crying: for her brother's home. damn it!

i voted for fluke but i rarely eat it. FRESH blues are a close second. Cooked on the grill they are great. Anything under 10 pounds, the dark stuff is a bit stronger but i like it too. In a few hours i will be eating the blues i got last night, bout 5-6 pounds, i cant wait.
