Trick is you have to keep them alive until you are about to clean them and cook them. Primitive fish like these and gars habe flesh that breaks down quickly when they are killed and it starts to get mushy.

Thanks! Wow, amazing new source of pet fish at a local deli... Live and learn. Some people wanna have them in their tanks. What were the sizes for sale?

Interesting. I noted that too with gars when I was doing post-mortum cause hunting. So, your comment is about an objectionable texture, not so much the taste, right?
 
thats pretty cool that you got a bowfin at an asian fish market ill go on my phone tommorow and look at the pics my laptop wont let me view them
 
The fish at the store were really active too the fish was 3.5 pounds and about 2 feet long and it cost $23 which I guess would be cheap if you decide to keep it in an aquarium
