    Had skate wings a couple of times. Did you eat the "bones"?

    no, was I supposed to crunch on them? :laughing: Must admit at first I wasn’t sure but just ate the meat off the ‘bones’. it kind of comes away really easy. It was with a buttery sauce and capers.

    No bones in skate, just cartilage.

    ah right, i wasn’t eating that whatever! You learn summat every day. It’s not a fish I’ve ever met in my many piscatorial adventures, but yes wings it kind of makes sense it’s not bones! i got a bit on my first taste and thought better of needing the ‘Heineken Remover’, or whatever it’s called, mid flow :laughing:

    think she’s having a rare gin, I’ll sort that out shortly. Birthday ends at 10pm though. I don’t make the rules.

    Used to catch skate off Selsey Bill on my now deceased BIL's boat. They don't put up a fight. It's like reeling in a big lump of sea weed. Also caught big bass and tope. Happy days.

    sounds tremendous. never caught any of those, but not a proper sea angler like you. I just mess about at it, thinking of trying my heavier fly set up, with fast sinking line and some pike flies or something like that, for pollock, off the boat.

    Wing? (Not a gag, just one of my favourite things to scoff. Sure @Interested Bystander@Interested Bystander's got amongst it too if memory serves)
