Definition: A member of the drum fish family but different from the croaker and black and red drums. The weakfish gets its name from the weak flesh around the mouth that tears easily when hooked. It has white, lean, finely textured flesh and is considered an excellent food fish. This species, which is found in the Atlantic and parts of the Pacific along both North and South America, is also called seatrout, spotted sea trout squeteague, gray trout and corvina (or corbina). See also fish.
