DrownedFishonFire Goliath Tigerfish MFK Member Nov 2, 2008 1,776 1,011 179 May 31, 2021 #9 The big question is it LEGAL? Doesnt matter if a fish is edible or not, check with your state/country if you need a license or not to take as well as making sure its within size regs as there are size limits on game fish generally where im from.
