Check out the following link at the 11:00 minute mark. The larger fish tend to be loaded with worms and from what I understand are not good table fare whatsoever. These fish are trophy fish to catch but the larger ones which seem to inhabit our area probably won't make the specials list anytime soon!

I enjoyed it the one time I tried it years ago, didn't know about the worms though. Maybe the mate's revenge for having to fillet the beast.

Nice fish.

Usually kids don't have the patience and crank down on the drag too much.

Nice job and landing that slob!
