Wayne - the 'spot hiding' was a joke.

The roe is edible and really good. When we were kids we would smoke these, but I have no idea if fish any good to eat or how to prepare. Reason we kept a few is they are great bait for offshore bottom fish - so I ate the roe and chunked the fish into freezer bags for future offshore trips.

The roe is good and the fish are similar to saltwater shad. "very oily" Good chum.

Safety warning, if you proceed to go offshore after eating the roe that stuff will put ball bearings in your back side if you over do it. :o
