Pier fish taste rankings!
Ok I'm reading online about Kings and Spanish not being the best table fare. So, what fish are the favorite that are caught from the pier purely for eating? Someone please get it started and give us your top 5 and worst 3! Thanks in advance

1. Pompano 2. Flounder 3. Mangrove snapper(if you can catch a legal one,kinda small at the pier) 4. Smaller black drum 5. Tie: Sheepshead/whiting/croaker
Worst: Bluefish is nasty in my opinion.
i like Spanish, reds, and specks. They aren't really my favs though. Don't care for kings and I don't cobia fish so I wouldn't know what it tasted like.

Well I've had Flounder and love it. We eat a lot of crappie and shell cracker up here in. Huntsville. I'm looking forward to trying Pompano, it seems everyone likes it. Me and my boy have caught a lot of flounder from the beach. Can't wait til the end of March were coming down and fishing the pier with pier#r one day.
