So thick you could walk on them today. Fun to hook up, they take a couple of short quick runs before you muscle them in. And when you're catching 1lb blues it's nice to have something heavy on the line pulling back. I don't care what it is as long as it fights back. Don't care if I can't eat it, hell, I wouldn't eat a 20lb bluefish either but I live to hook up with them.

Why are these rays protected? Sure seem to be doing ok. Does it have anything to do with their situation in Delaware? I vaguely recall something about them being problematic for the blackfishing down there.
