I like that one, you are becoming the fish skin backing specialist!

Thank you all for taking the time to check it out. 

Morgan, Folks on the "Around the Campfire" board told me they taste just like lobster if you cut um into cubes, boil, then dip in butter. I didn't believe it until I tried it. Darn they were right!  The small ones are great for eating, and the big ones for backing. 

Hawk, never heard that, but maybe the saltwater variety is a warm water fish? I've never fished for um here in the winter, but maybe they stop hittin when the weather gets cold.

Never tried em boiled like that, but I need to! I’ll eat em fried but my family thinks they’re too chewy.
