Crabeater
Nice little crabeater/black kingfish there Dennis.
The smaller ones are usually pretty good on the chew, not unlike spaniard in some ways but with a slightly stronger taste.

Nice fish
Dennis did it give a good fight??
I caught one about the same size at steep point and it came in like a sack of spuds.
People keep saying how well they fight, how was yours ??

Nice
Nice cobes there Dennis. Theyre a bit of a tough one when it comes to eating quality. I've had some really good ones that tasted like steak and had some which were like soggy potato.
I release any cobia that I catch from now on. Mainly because there are so many other tasty morsels to choose from. :)

Dennis, Cobia has to be
Dennis, Cobia has to be cooked in a stir fry. If you have eatten stirfry dishes with fish in Asia, eg noodles etc.... it is cobia.
