I actually hooked up after the sun went down. Landing in the dark in decent sized surf with a bigger fish was sketchy.
Jim, Why do you suggest flash freezing the WSB first? i had it on ice for 2 days, does that help? |

But croakers def have worms. I don't go looking for them because...well I just don't want to go through the disappointment mentally. Belly/anal areas, esp. All of mine is cooked anyways. IDK whether icing for a couple of days kills all...maybe someone else can respond. Good job brotha. Jim

Don't rely on salt or lime to kill them and freezing can help at -4°F for a few days. Here is a nice read and best practice for dealing with parasites. |

How does one "flash freeze"? Is there a special kind of freezer required?

No, no special freezer required...just liquid nitrogen.

another option......
But I don't think I'll be canning WSB again I'll try anything once,it doesn't have the fish oils like tuna and yellow tail but still good....better to eat fresh or vacuum packed by a professional $28.95 a pound in some fish markets...The fryed wsb reminds me of the Salton sea...days and corvina...
