The best eating fish in the sea.

Nothing goes past fresh slab spanish mackeral, some butter some lemon and a little cracked pepper, I'm also a big fan of fresh tuna sashimi, so sweet, yummo.

To back up Blaze's wrap for shark, I recently bought some flake from C-O-L-E-S deli.

After dusting it with flour and pan frying, I was shocked at how good it tasted.
I am now a convert and will never look down my nose at eating shark again.
(Hopefully though, sharks will look down their noses at eating me)

I'm surprised John Dory isn't on that list.

I can't say I've tasted most of those fish, but JD is internationally renowed as arguably the finest table fish on Earth.

Barramundi Cod are bloody good eating, but unfortunately they're on the no take list now.

Goodonya Kingtin.

No mangrove jack in the poll ?? A while back I spent some time on Melville. They have a huge range of fish to choose from and while they release basically everything, the only fish they take for the table are jacks. And they are superb.

Gotta be blue eye trevalla for me , no question. Tiger flathead's good too, so is umm, albacore whiting, barra, mackerel, threadfin, emperor, trumpeter, - gees Ilike 'em all!

[nictim]

I would have to say Red Bass have been lucky a few times just off Hat Head Vanuatu !!!
Ps hardest fighting fish in the sea ( I think anyway )

[Leo_N.]

1. Coral trout
2. Longtail tuna (nevel caught yellowtail or SBT)
3. Fingermark
4. Red emperor
5. Mangrove jack
All are pretty hard to turn down.

Intereesting that there doesn't seem all that much interest in barramundi. I have never kept one of my barra catches yet so can't really comment.
