Democrats have already gerrymandered all they could to the max. Some of it's getting undone to something more fair. Fuck Off.

Fair?? The GOP-igs wouldn't know the word fair even if it came wrapped with a naked 9 year old boy.

That's nice, honey. Wasn't a Democrat arrested for the same just last week?
Bonus for being of the nappy-headed variety AND a Democrat politician. (just for you, bitch)
Appears you missed the “ if it weren’t for the Latin influence all the old people would be living on 1950’s fare,”
Those are warm water fish, tasteless, ever eat a Florida lobster, they ought to give them away. As stated, except for the few I mentioned, the menus in restaurants are dominated by cold water fish
Mahi is one if the others are mentioned, and your going to compare a warm water snapper with the cold water snapper? Ever eat a warm water lobster?
I noted shrimp, grouper, and few others, but all the others you listed are warm water versions of the same cold water fish, and you’d have to pay anyone who has been to NorthEast raw bar to eat Florida oysters
When we pull them up it from 80 plus feet it hurts their swim bladder so we deflate if by sticking an ice pick in it then we throw them back. I'm not sure how many survive. The regulation requires them to be 14 inches or bigger. It should be the first 5 fish you catch regardless of size. If they died it is wasteful to throw them back.
^That looks over the FWC limit or she's real small. I hate the rules. Fish don't know any rules when they take the bait.
Reds look a lot like Grouper if you ask me.
Taste a lot like it, too. Oh! They're less finny and a smaller mouth. Don't fight as hard, either.
Groupers are bastards. They'll take your line down into their hole and snap it.
That snapper looks 25-30 pounds.

When I was a teenager there was no limits on redfish or sand trout. We would rent a seine around 5 high and 300 feet long tie one end to a truck and wade the other out as far as it would go and loop back in. We would catch redfish , sand trout , gaftop , shrimp, crabs and small sharks. We had a witches cauldron we would pile drift wood around it and we would have a shrimp and crab boil. We would crank up a Coleman stove and have a fish fry right on the beach. (The girls would flock in by the drove.)
anadromous fish
In all fairness anadromous fish spend a great portion of their live in the ocean. In fact they pile up around warm water discharges in the winter time. The guy across the street from while I was growing up had access to a water discharges that the power plant had from cooling water that flowed thought their machinery and was discharged hot into a canal. In the winter redfish would pile up around the discharge. They were easy to catch but only power company employees could fish there. Luckily my neighbor would take me with him. So I don't consider red fish (red drum) a "cold water fish". They a warm brackish water and salt water fish. Same thing for sand trout and flounder.
So they eat oysters and crabs out of the polluted Chesapeake instead.

Tilapia die in cold water. I put them in our family farm pond. they die at around 60 degrees.
And they have next to no taste
Florida oysters are tasteless. Went to a supposed Raw Bar in both Fort Lauderdale and St Pete, dollar oysters, and if they offer3d the same in Boston or NY they wouldn’t sell one. Same with a supposed lobster roll in Fort Myersanadromous fish

Next time you are in one of Florida’s chain restaurants, which dominate Florida, look at the seafood offerings and the vast majority are cold water fish. You have to look hard to find an actual seafood restaurant, and when you do, it’s usually disappointing. What they offer is tasteless or taste, as the saying goes, chicken
Finally! A sentence that matches the crime!
Kachemak Bay oysters are the best! Cold water seafood is the best! I was spoiled living in AK.

What happened with the price of oysters?
I remember in the 80’s (and before) they were so cheap there were oyster eating contests.
We’d sit at an oyster bar and have a huge pile of oyster shells in front of us. Now they’re like $1.50 - $2 per oyster or more, raw and you only get a half dozen as an appetizer.
Then you can can get a fried oyster poboy at any of dozens , if not hundreds of small restaurants or mom and pop grocery stores in the New Orleans area for less than $10.
The fuck?

Disagree totally. They’re not bad but Gulf oysters are naturally slightly salty giving them better taste and they’re twice as big.
