Angling
Sea robins can be caught by casting meat near the seafloor, where they actively feed. Mackerel is believed to be the most efficient bait for catching sea robins, but bunker and other fish meat can also be used successfully. Sea robins can also be caught by lure fishing if lured near the substrate. They are often considered to be rough fish, caught when fishing for more desirable fish such as striped bass.

Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.”
