i'ts kinda hard to explain fish o.0 they all taste pretty much the same...
but it's extremely tender, and seems to retain juices pretty damn well...
but mostly i prefer it cuz it's a deep water fish so they get pretty big, no bones to worry about (and it's pretty cheap which is a plus... it's almost EXACTY like salmon at a fraction of the price)
they have a smaller brother in lakes and what not... called redfish. i'm sure you've seen one from time to time...

our local bay used to be filled with kroakers too... another one of my favs (tho small)

they used to be pretty fucking big and abundant around here...
but our local fishing has all but dried up... fishing for hours, you're lucky to get one bite, much less one fish... and if you do get lucky enough to get that fish, it's no longer then 6 inches >.< just a baby not even worth keeping...
needless to say, i haven't had fresh fish in awhile....
