I think I told you before but when I was in NJ last year I caught a many of them buggers over the 5 lb range. The seem to be all head and gut. What exactly would you eat off of them.

Greetings Jason!

The white/orange color combo on the belly seems to work best. Of course, this is the thinnest piece of meat, so it has better action. Although I will cut up a sea robin or two for bait, I am against the idea of chopping them up for no reason and tossing them over the side. This is now against NJ regulations (and about time!)

The past two years the Sea Robin population seems to be getting larger during the bluefish contest I caught 27 of them while jigging for blues, if this keeps up I might have to try them. And just remeber looks don't make a fish taste bad think of how ugly the Monkfish and Wolf fish look and there taste is excellent.
