Additional types of fishing gear include gill-nets, seines, hooks-and-lines, traps and pound nets. This fish has a light flavor and is used in many popular fish dinners. This flavorful fish can be baked, broiled, poached, fried, made into cakes or chowder or salted for long term storage without loss of flavor or nutrition.
