Catch a few every year when drifting for fluke and porgy fishing around Western CT. I never cooked them up before though.

I found the skin n on them is very thin,it deteriorates very quick,put them right on ice,makes skinning the filets a snap..

I target them occasionally in the surf in later summer. Its usually one of those beach days with the wife and I can't leave my pole home so I set it out and relax. I just use a simple high/low rig tip with pieces of bloodworm. They are very good eating my old man can't get enough of them.
