@Vang, The meat is very soft, but It was really good! I deep fryed it, it taste like a big chicken nugget.

Thats a big one! Honestly, I really hate these. These have always freaked me out when fishing. how do they taste?

@Zach, yes! the Cajuns here in Louisiana call them Choupiques. They are strong, and give a great fight. plus they have sharp teeth.
