What are your top five favorite fish to eat?

Captain Juan · 10-15-2008, 12:37 PM

I have seen some posts and threads here and there on this subject, but was wondering what your top five (5) favorite fish are to eat.

Mine are:

1) Cobia
2) Wahoo
3) Tripletail
4) Swordfish
5) Yellowfin tuna

* honorable mention - mutton snapper, redfish, hogfish, permit, dolphin, gag grouper and snook

I found it hard to list just five since I love fish, but it would be neat to hear from the rest of ya.

Tight lines and hot fryers!!!!

I'll keep it to fish semi-regularly caught (otherwise i'd say bigeye tuna)

1. Yellowfin tuna (raw raw raw)
2. Snowy Grouper
3. Wahoo (raw is phenomenal, cooked is okay)
4. Tripletail
5. Fresh Blackfin tuna (first day, raw or seared)

A couple of notables missing are sword, hog, and GT.
I like to catch swords, but i'm not a huge fan of eating it.
I don't like the taste of hogfish, call me crazy.
GT's are good, but it's personal choice.
