Lean, firm white meat with a mild flavor; challenging to prepare due to complex bone structure. Edible when properly filleted — baked or fried — but mostly released by sport anglers.

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.
