hard to say. the skates i have caught in Long Island, NY waters are measurably larger than ones i've caught in RI/Mass, and so the former have been dinner-fare.
you're eating the wings, so if you have wings that have more meat than cartilage, or if you're into a mess of skates, by all means, give it a try.
if anyone here has a method for quickly and humanely dispatching skates (cutting the wings off a life skate is cruel) ... lemme know. sharp blow to the head?
