Can't keep any oversize reds here.


Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.

Rehabilitation is way overrated.

For the record flounder and trout are way better eating than red fish.

NICE!
Where in the Gulf?
I have a buddy in New Smyrna Beach with a flats boat.
We’re going to get after them in Cedar Key and St Augustine the end of January beginning of February

We fish out of Venice, LA. I've also done well on them in and around Lake Calcasieu and Rockefeller Refuge.

I agree, fresh, fried specks are near the top of my list. However, 18" redfish half-shelled on the grill are pretty darn good.

Venice is a real mess after hurricane Ida. We moved our boats from Venice to Fairhope, AL before the hurricane and are now fishing out of Apalachicola, Florida.

if a red fish don't taste good you need to learn how to cook better

That`s a fact Jack !!
We use Zatarains blackening seasoning on Shrimp,Red Fish, Red Snapper Grouper, Mahi, Chicken and Pork Chops.
On the fish we brush on melted butter then the Zatarains and put it on a hot grill
( griddle ).

Disagree on the trout part. And I've cooked and ate a schit ton of them. Lot of water in trout filets.

I'll bet that flounder and bigger red that 35 caught will cook up nicely.
