    I rinse them in freshwater and then pat it off with a paper towel. Liberally add the seasoning in the picture and it will change your life. I would take it over a good steak.

    I put it on cast iron, but on the grill and not in the house.

    I've never eaten (nor caught) a redfish.

    I need to get more serious about actually fishing in the salt instead of crusin' around, botom "fishing", and drinking beer.

    Best there is. I let a lot of them go and only take one or two on occasion. Between grilled spottail or trout and row and grits I'm not sure which I would rather indulge in.

    To hell with scaling a spot tail.

    Agreed.

    trout tastes best.

    I wanna see more "char" on that, B53w. More like led's. Needs some fire to it.

    Redfish is best served fairly plain. I like that spice, but tend to use lemon pepper and such...
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    Tony Chachere's is my go to spice. I eat on everything but cake.

    Spottail may be my least favorite of trout, flounder and spottails. Sheeps are my undisputed favorite inshore fish.

    Only grilled 1 side that is the reason it's not charred. Used Creole seasoning and it was banging.

    Chachere's is the only spice that makes me sneeze uncontrollably
