Cuisine & Edibility
Atlantic Sailfish
Firm, mildly flavored flesh similar to marlin; primarily a catch-and-release sport fish. Edible when smoked or grilled but rarely targeted for food; sport anglers typically release it.
Striped Bass
Sweet, tender white flesh with moderate fat and a clean ocean flavor. Highly regarded on the East Coast; superb roasted whole, grilled as fillets, or pan-seared with butter.
Species Overview
Atlantic Sailfish
The sailfish is the fastest fish in the ocean, reaching speeds up to 110 km/h. Its enormous dorsal fin, or 'sail,' can be raised to herd baitfish. When hooked, it performs spectacular tail-walking displays across the water surface.
Striped Bass
The striped bass is an anadromous species native to the Atlantic coast of North America. It migrates seasonally along the coast and up rivers to spawn, providing exceptional fishing from surf, boat, and shore.
