Peacock Bass - Eating Quality

Eating Quality

Their eating quality is very good. Their flesh is white and sweet when cooked, and has very little oil, making it similar in taste to snapper or grouper. Also, they are not excessively bony. However, most professional American anglers recommend practicing catch and release for these species to protect their numbers in the United States. To help ensure this, Florida Wildlife and Game Commission officers strictly enforce bag limits for these fish.

Famous quotes containing the words eating and/or quality:

    “After all anybody is as their land and air is. Anybody is as the sky is low or high. Anybody is as there is wind or no wind there. That is what makes a people, makes their kind of looks, their kind of thinking, their subtlety and their stupidity, and their eating and their drinking and their language.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “While the rest of the world has been improving technology, Ghana has been improving the quality of man’s humanity to man.”
    —Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
