Careful what you say around here. "Wide Open" "Huge Butt" & "Getting Bent" to name a few, always brings out HTBO.


I caught about a dozen the other day....more of a nuisance if you ask me.

It's Part of the flounder family, is this a sole fish? If so they taste better than halibut if you batter and deep fry them up. Super crispy and all you need to do is remove the center bone eat the rest like potatoe chips

pickens were slim

Had to put something on the table. They were tasty. Mini halibuts. Lol. I wish they were sole. Sandab. None the less had a good time. Thanks again everyone.

Sand dabs are delisious. Take a pair of scissors and just trim around the body. Take off head, fins, and guts with one pass. Lightly season and cook on a hot skillet. If you time the cooking right a light shake will cause 2 perfect little fillets to slide off the bones. A little lemon and you're good to go. Mike

Thanks for the recipe. The last time I tried to cook these it was a disaster. Next time I'll give your method a try.

Those Sand Dabs are delicious. No BS.

Easy to cut, follow the lines on the white side.
Scissor cut the fins, fry in olive oil.

Season with garlic salt, Progresso Italian Breadcrumbs, and into the pan they go.

Medium heat on the oil - don't burn them.
-----------------------
Be advised you can use an 8 hook rig when fishing for them. no limit.
