Rooster madness attempt #2


Took my brother fishing on the "Outcast" today to try to get him his first Rooster fish. We caught 5, here are some pictures of a couple of them.

I tried a couple of times to edit the size of the photos, maybe if I delete the post and start over?

My brother's first Rooster (the one he is holding) was 60lbs. My first rooster was about 10lbs. I've never caught a 60lb rooster.....something is terribly wrong here......

Thanks Don, I will. Seems like the older we get the harder it is to find time to hang out together. We are spending a week just the two of us, no wives no kids.......no food, no clean laundry, no clean dishes.....we don't need that stuff anyways.:biggrin:

Rooster fish


Can anybody tell me if Rooster fish are any good to eat? I have avoided spearing them because of the few negative comments I have heard about their lack of tastiness.

The very small ones aren't bad. The larger ones are very grainy. If planing to release a rooster, it's not a good idea to hoist them up by their gills, it puts a lot of stress on the fish.

Not sure, I always use the same "cedar plank" recipe for roosters that I use for carp, I usually grill Mahi.....
