Sheepshead? Jeeze, that's like pullin up discarded bicycle tires.
Triggerfish put up a real fight and are worth eatin. Down Mexico way the
boys filet em for ya soon as the boat hits the dock. Triggers are
probably the fightenest fish pound for pound you can sling aboard.


Pound-for-pound, the lowly pinfish outfights all others...
I've caught plenty of triggerfish. They are excellent eating, but a bear
to clean. But I never pulled one up and said to myself "damn, that was
one tough fish". I'd put their fighting ability on par with a small
black drum or a sheepshead.



Yep. The pinfish is like a small bluegill. But pound-for-pound, it's a
heckuva fighter.


Good gawd these Floriduhites have a lot to learn. Must be sompin in the
water.

We could scoop those into the boat with a landing net behind a chum
line. I've caught hundreds, literally. A jack in the same weight class
will run for its life. Triggerfish don't compare.
