I don't get Grouper up here at all and if I ever do I would definitely pick up a piece. I only freeze 4 fish, Winter Flounder, Fluke, which you call Flounder, Stripers and Black Fish. Certain fish are too mushy to freeze, like Bluefish and Weakfish, I think you call Sea Trout, they must be kept on ice, so they stay firm and should be eaten the same day. Porgy's and Sea Bass can be frozen, but the Porgy's have way too many pins in it for me, so I don't keep them and I have never caught a keeper Sea Bass, that I kept. I caught one keeper, it was 5 pounds and it was the day before opening day, everyone said keep it, I said no and released it. It was a good thing, about an hour later we were boarded by the DEC to check what we had.
Thanks for the response and sorry for the long story.
