For some reason the George's fish don't tend to have the premo fat content that the inshore fish do. Peculiar, as they're generally chowing on herring, and can obviously swim great distances in a day, so it's not like they're a completely different stock. But a Georges fish tends to get about $4-8/lb, while the inshore fish like FR said have been steadily netting about $15-25. Most I've heard of so far was a 519 that got $26/lb.
