Rhode Island Whiting

Whiting, a relative of the codfish, have been an important fishery resource to Rhode Island for as long as Rhode Islanders have gone fishing. There's a lot of history in it. This is a two-part video, and close to 8 minutes long, so be sure to make some popcorn. The first part is about the fishery, history, and its importance to Rhode Island. The second part, after the red buoy, is about the markets, and how people eat them. We hope you enjoy it.

    Used to catch them at night in NJ on the Long Branch Pier( burnt down) at night and on Belmar party boats (along with Ling ) over 40 yrs ago . Fished out by INTERNATIONAL boats that venture illegally within local waters ALL the time which explains why the fisheries NEVER recovered.

    Whiting is incredibly delicious. Problem with Whiting is they don't hold up well fresh, they turn quickly

    would love to know why they dont come inshore in the winter like they did in the 60's and 70's, maybe part 2 could talk about that....

    Made me hungry for Whiting. I hope they don’t become fodder for the industrial fish meal market.

    Great video. Don't quite get the "white America" comment or why it was necessary to even make that distinction but it is what it is I guess ... 🤔
