I'm sure it taste similar to redfish as they are similar. However, I'm not a big redfish fan and had rather eat specks.

I ate one when I was a kid and thought it was pretty good fried.

Small reds and SMALL black drum are some of the best. Way better than those wormy squishy trout.

I've caught a couple thousand of them I reckon. But I never knew they had teeth.

So I googled it.

It seems that the teeth are in the throat. That's why I never knew it.

As for eating them, I would have to be getting pretty hungry first.

I caught one while bass fishing on a crankbait. Thought it was a big bass!

I have fileted small ones 2-3 lbs and throwed in with bass and crappie filets and never had a negative comment. Pretty white meat. Probably like sheephead years ago everyone said they where trash fish and only the blacks would keep them, now they are popular as hell.
