Looks pretty goodKind of. They do make scallops out sting ray wings. If you haven’t tried these……you’re missing out. I like them deep fried, too. I usually end up with a few (cooler full) on my work seminars….only have about 6 more left in the freezer. And……we do make scallops from them.

You’d like this, I’ve seen your fish / cooking pictures. It’s a really good meat. Smaller ones don’t have the scallop texture.I’ve always heard that but never tried it ! Looks good to me , and I don’t like scallops
That’s a mighty nice offer ! You had any fresh crappie lately ? May could make a tradeYou’d like this, I’ve seen your fish / cooking pictures. It’s a really good meat. Smaller ones don’t have the scallop texture.
These are just right for fillets. Out of curiosity grab you one at an Asian supermarket or my freezer.

I hadn’t even been this season. Trading is always cool.That’s a mighty nice offer ! You had any fresh crappie lately ? May could make a trade
Cut the wings off, you can use two pair of catfish skinners to pull both ways or a fillet knife. Skin removes very easy.How do you dress them out? Cutoff wings? Skin? Filet?
when I worked the boat they said use a cookie cutter to make portions. But I never did it.
You can flop 'em on their back and get your hook out. It kind of puts 'em to sleep.Cut the wings off, you can use two pair of catfish skinners to pull both ways or a fillet knife. Skin removes very easy.
That piece in the pic is one wing after dressing out so it’s really not big enough to filet as a boneless piece. It does have a line of bone in it but after it’s cooked it’s like pulling butter off a toothpick.
I have filleted those sizes out away from the bone and made small scallops. Anything round works on punching out scallops.
I don’t mess with them live…….ever. Catch, hold over a cooler of ice, cut the line, slam the lid. Later on after they’ve given up the ghost you can cut the barb off, get your hook out, cut the wings off, feed rest to hogs.
After waking my wife up one time……I don’t take a chance on waking anything up!!!!You can flop 'em on their back and get your hook out. It kind of puts 'em to sleep.
Good looking meal!
Majority are protectedI would like to try some of those. I hear shark meat tastes a lot like Scallops also.
Yep.You can flop 'em on their back and get your hook out. It kind of puts 'em to sleep.

I just go down by the spine and work my way around the edge taking the wing off. I don’t cut that front off either. Two wings for me……..rest for the hogs.I always flip em back in. Might have to try it. I'm struggling some with the cuts you have though. The wing is obvious but that second piece has me confused. Around the front? You mind showing on this one I caught a few weeks ago? BTW : I wont fall for saving the claspers.
