John we get a run on the beaches in the New Haven area in mid to late May. They show on the evening tides and are caught on Krockadiles and soft plastics and also have been taken on Mag Darters as well. The run only lasts a few weeks on the beaches after that most are caught as by catch when fishing reefs for Porgies.
This is the only time we / I target them. We have had a few nice fish caught 2 by a club member in the 30" class. Thats about as big as I've seen. Some years the numbers are good some not.
They are a beautiful fish and good eatin if prepared the same day.
The meat turns to mush if frozen or refrig.
