    Caught this fish by clearwater beach today and can not find what it is by searching the web. Any help would be greatly appreciate.

    Looks like it might be what is called a Whiteing. Not sure of the spelling. Try looking that up and see if it's a match.

    Whiting , bony but great fried. Should be eaten fresh otherwise it ends up tasting like cat food.

    Yes on the Whiting .... but the King Mackerel is a very different fish. What they do have in common is that they are both at their best when they have been put in the smoker.
