I enjoy eating what little I catch and by far enjoy sharing what I catch with those that don't have the opportunity to fish like I do. Being Thanksgiving I'm thankful to live in a country where people can share their comments without fear of reprisal. Thankful for my best fishing buddy SharkyMark who takes me fishing and all the guys at the Atlantic Highlands Marina ramp who are very polite and share their stories with me. Happy Thanksgiving!

Who freezes fresh fish ? I eat it fresh, if I have extra I go around to all my neighbors and give it away. I tell them if they freeze this I will not give them any more fish. Frozen fish ?- might as well go to Shop Rite.

Wink Re: What so y'all do with all dat fish ?

Number of times fished has nothing to do with number of fish caught. I have had the skunk on me too many times in past years. Sure, I've caught my share of fish but have never frozen my catch. We take just enough for a meal or two and share with friends and family. On our own boat we control what we take and even on party boats that are "railed" you would be shocked at how many fish are actually caught as many go home with one or none. With all due respect you eat a hell of a lot me fish than my entire family and friends eat in a full year.

Douche? Troll? Grow up my friend. That's coming from a guy who's probably ally younger then you.

It's an honest question and I didn't mean to offend anyone. I was making room in my freezer for the holiday and just thought to myself how the F do ppl keep all this fish?

Hell, I don't care what anyone does with there catch, it's a free country, and as long as you stay within the law who am I to judge?


One guy said it right that he gives it to local business as almost a barter agreement. Shit id gladly give fish away for free dry cleaning.

I didn't mean to upset anyone, I just was curious as to what many of you do with your catch as obviously some catch/keep a ton more then I do and I struggle to eat it all.

Just an FYI, I eat fish every single day, out side of the random salmon fillet , I've not purchased fish in two years. I want to give off shore seabass a shot but I simply don't know what i would do with my catch as I've hit my personal and responsible quota for the year.


Anyways apologies for anyone who took this the wrong way. I'm going to have a nice talk with mr.kim at my dry cleaners and try and make some agreement. Getting sick and tired of my $60 dry cleaning a week.

Happy tday all, enjoy the bird, family, and football

This is not as heartless as it sounds.
I love to eat all fish, but generally I will freeze only lean white fish such as Fluke, Sea Bass, Tog or Whiting.

Over the years, I have found that I also like to eat the oily fish I catch (Blues, Mackerel, Weakfish, Stripers, etc) but only on the day I catch them or the next day at the latest. In my opinion, once you freeze these oily fish they are no longer the same tasting, or textured fish. What goes into the freezer is not the same when it comes out. So unless I know I can give them away to friends or neighbors for immediate consumption, I will release them to fight another day.
