I tag them in NJ.Sea Robins seem like the only hing I ever get so lets go with them. I like how they sort of walk on the sea floor anyway
Yeah but those big ugly suckers sure are good to eat!Coming from the Midwest, I just couldn't comprehend the difference between freshwater & saltwater fishing until I got to experience it. Whether it was sharks, redfish, red snapper, or king mackeral in the gulf, tuna and Mahi out east, or kings, coho, & steelhead in AK, I was amazed. The idea that a steelhead is basically a rainbow trout that goes out into the ocean and mutates into a pizzed off eating machine blew my mind. It almost ruined fishing back home.
The only exception for me is halibut. I could accomplish the same thing hooking up to a car door in the MS River, only I wouldn't have to bring the dang thing up from 300'. Fished 2 days for halibut, the 2nd day just because the big water was too rough to make a salmon run. Don't think I have the urge to ever go again. Too much like work!
