I just joined Fishing Reminder and looking forward to catching some fish or at least rays (sun). With the storms I don't expect anything to happen for a couple more days.

Hello Karl, We had a storm blow through here Tuesday and another is expected tomorrow. Like you it will take a couple days to smooth out, although there have been a few guys posting pictures of some nice fish immediately after. I don't know their secrets.

I was making a joke about catching some rays, (sun rays and getting a tan). A small attempt at humor when I don't catch any fish, I can usually add to my tan. HaHaHa.

I do not target rays, but I did catch a small one the other day. I have heard that parts of the wings can be eaten, I have not tried that. I have caught 'clear nosed' skates which are similar to a ray. They taste pretty good but there is a lot of work for the very small amount of meat. I did this only once and had no one to ask if there was a better way. I gave a couple skates away, one time, and the people were very glad to have them.
Regards Richard
