I used to fish them in the surf but I've caught bigger ones over 5ft just fishing halibut gear (20lbs) in SMB. The thing to note about Leopards is they are a closed fishery for part of the year.

unless from shore. shore is open all year and we get them big.
wife got this one about a week ago.
heres what the meat looks like. its really good. i keep a couple every year and its usually only in the 4ft range and will last several weeks. make sure you marinade it in a lemony brine solution as it thaws.
in my opinion shovel nose is the best tasting.
