Default Sharks

Took the kiddos to the Jetties last night to see if we could them on the STAR Tournament leader board for The youth gafftop division. (yes there is a gafftop category in the Texas STAR) We didn't catch any trophy gafftops, but we did catch a few blacktips.

I knew some Sharks were edible but I didn't realize black tip was one.

Make some fish tacos with that, thats the tradition fish used for it.

Shoot I'll take a lil shark like that over specks or reds any day of the week. They are fantastic. Best fish I've ever eaten fried.

24" is the minimum legal length and one shark per person per day in TX. We caught some bigger ones, which we released, I think the smaller ones taste better.

I filet them just like a trout. I've never done anything different with them than I've done with specks. When we have get togethers at the house, we usually fry fish, and its always a mixed bag with several species all mixed together in chunks on cookie sheets. Whenever somebody comes across a chunk of fried shark, they almost always say "dang that good, what kind of fish is that?" Its very white and has a dense texture. More like chicken breast tenders than fish IMO
