Man you shoulda been at the jeeties on thursday, we must of caught 10 gafftop that went between 5 and 8 lbs. My self i wont even put them in my boat, i hang over the side and pull the hook out with pliers. Nasty,slimy suckers.

RAKEDLAKE 09-08-2009 12:44 PM
I have a friend of mine that will take all the sail cats. He usually don't keep any under 5 lbs. But he tells me you get the red out and the meat is perfectly white and very good.

Jordan 09-08-2009 12:52 PM
it is.... cut the tail and the blood will drain out... i failed to on this trip cause someone in the back of the boat kept it and i didnt even knwo they caught it...

I eat hardheads. They ain't bad. I don't clean them sumbeotches.
There was a guy who had a camp close to Oyster Bayou and we dropped them off in
his fish basket at his dock. He would clean them and cook them for us at his camp
and we kept the good fish for home.
Gafftop are good eating too. Just not as hard to clean as Hardheads.

*****... thats hardcore !!

Ray 09-08-2009 04:49 PM
I have worked offshore for over 25 years. When I catch a fish, I clean it and if it ain't bloody or oily, I fry that mutha and do a taste test.
I have eaten hundreds of hard heads. But I have never cleaned one.
Gafftop is even better.

Some friends of my dads from Pennsylvania stayed at our camp in hackberry for about a week or so and my dad and I stopped by to see how they were doing. This nice lady says," we have been pulling the crab traps up every couple hours catching catfish out of them." My dad asks have you been eating them?" She says yes they are boney but good-- we started dying laughing and gave them a bag of trout fillets. We pan seared a fresh fillet with lemon & butter, they seemed to like it a little better.

Funny Story Though--
