As for gourmet cooking of underutilized fish, don't forget skates and sea robins. Skates are used for lobster bait in New England and some make it to gormet French restaurants. As for dogfish and sea robins, they are already a staple food source in Great Britain. I think some dogfish is actually shipped to the UK from the states.

I agree as there is a Salt Water License required. They bring in alot of money with tourists also. My Grandson came down last moth and i had two buy him a Salt Water and Fresh Water license. I don't mind because the use the money wisely. Our launch ramps are for free and most have a clean rest room. The money from the fresh water license is used to buy land and build new lakes. Seniors over 65 don't pay for hunting or fishing license. Children under 16 don't pay either. As long as my money goes to a good cause i have no complaints. |
