Sting rays are eatable. They are kinda bland tasting. The texture is different as well. I cheat and cut small chunks out of the wings, soak them in clam juice bread them and fry them and pretend they're scallops or cut them in fillet like pieces and fry them with fish. Ray takes on the fish taste.

Thanks prayers are appreciated and I am gaining ground. My body could only stand 2 rounds of chemo but I'm still doing imenotherpy. 2 rounds of chemo took every hair in my body. Now I've got fuzz on my head and a 1/4" goatee Tight lines 4🎣

Four I'm still fighting cancer and chemo messed up my heart. I've been fishing 3 times since last fall. Yesterday I was fishing and caught 2 which will go on the smoker.

I'll bet he meant Fred Howard as he said Tarpon Springs. Going out to the island (park) is a mile long bridge with grass flats on either side with bridges thru the causeway.

Finger mullet.

Crippled mullet. Find where there's drop offs. Even the sea Trout like that and will go for broken tail mullet.

My first boat was a Kool ( cigarette ) Sea Snark Sailboat. Styrofoam $ aluminum mast lante sail. If memory serves me right I was 22 years old. I caught my first Walleye trolling under sail. I was a busy boy. Rudder under my left elbow, right foot keeping wind in the sail and both hands fighting that walleye.

There is no Red tide anywhere in Florida but there is restrictions on about all fish except Hardhead Catfish! Oh yes and Sail Cats.

There's great Sea Trout in your area. Use a crippled mullet for red fish & trout. I like a live lizard under the mango limbs that hang over the water.

The doctor pointed up and said that's God's work when I thanked him. So prayers work🙏🙏🏿👍

Thanks Dozer I'm still excited about the news.

Not making plans yet I'm still weak as a kitten but am hopeful. Still need a walleye.

You're right. I guess I'll stop giving my fishing gear away.

This was a great one for me! I spent 4 hours in the VA running between Labs and imenotherpy session then I saw my cancer doctor and he told me that I was cancer free!!! But I'm staying on imenotherpy every 6 weeks for undetermined time. Makes you wonder 3 months ago the doctor said I would be dead in 6 to 9 months. I started chemo and imenotherpy and quit the chemo after 2 sessions. I continued with the imenotherpy and will continue it. The chemotherapy was to hard on my heart. Now the cancer is all but gone. I still have a tumor in upper right lobe of my lung but it hasn't changed!! So with that news it was a great 77 birthday for me!!!

I have a collapsible net I bought for a trout fishing trip a couple years ago. I've only used it about 3 or 4 times. I was more than satisfied with it. The handle extends and slides in over the half folded net. The net is rubber coated I guess.
