    snakeheads?

    Well I went catfishin today at hovey lake in so. In. And to my surprise I got into a mess of snakeheads.. All I really know about them is that there invasive and should be killed. Buuut I read that they eat them in asia. I was wondering, has anyone tried to clean these critters and fry em up? I have no problem killing them, but if there good to eat ill just do that..

    If they are snakeheads then you need to report this the the dnr and fish/wildlife asap, but i bet that yu were catching bowfins aka grennals.

    Your right.. I looked it up and I was catching grennals. I feel a little silly, but that was the first time I'd ever caught one and the first thing that came to mind was snakehead. Thanks for clearing that up!

    Them things are vicious. I hate em. Ya think you just hooked a hog. Then the depression sets in when you realize what it is. Then your main concern is how bad did it tear your bait. Yup trashed....
