@bignews3.bellsouth.net:
I have to disagree with you, I have caught hundreds of Redfish here in
South Louisiana, and have found that the ideal table food Redfish is
between 4 to 8 pounds.
Under 4lbs and one has to deal with small bones, over 8lbs and the meat
becomes stringy and coarse, plus their is that nasty blood strip in the
center of the filets.
IMO redfish over 8lbs serve a far more important purpose of breeding stock
then as table food.
well they are still GOOD to eat, but the problem is in Florida we have a
slot limit 18 - 27 inches, both we over 40.
Nice reds! Are they too big to eat at that size?
