Have some friends that say hell no and others who say I'm crazy to throw them back. What's the general consensus here?

The best index to a person’s character is (a) how he treats people who can’t do him any good, and (b) how he treats people who can’t fight back.

I've only caught them on live bait. Probably eat pretty good

Guess it would depend how hungry I was. I have never tried one. In a survival situation maybe.

I've eaten small ones when I was a kid and would bring home an assortment of panfish. Mom would cook them up with the bream and catfish. They were edible, just not as good as the others.

Edible, yes. Id throw them back versus a crappie or even bass, but they will keep you alive if you are starving.

I have ate them before. They are ok. We would keep small ones from the creeks and eat growing up.

hell no, next question.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

All species of fish much like vagina are edible, you just have to decide how hungry you are.

That would depend on how long it's been since your last meal.

Native Americans ate them all the time. They would smoke them or slow roast them. A lot of archaeologists often confuse drum-fish teeth with human infant tooth caps.
