Do they not have much culinary value? Forgive me for what's likely a stupid question, I'm just an uninformed American...

Re: First ever catch :D

Not the best fish for the table pyro, and they are very slow growing so better to return them if possible.

Re: First ever catch :D

Nice wrasse btw Anderson, might be worth buying yourself a small fish ID book you can keep in you tackle bag if your not sure about your species.

Re: First ever catch :D

The only wrasse we have over here is known as the tautog or blackfish, and I've heard good things about them as a food fish. I don't keep fish for the table very often, but I fish with a chef so I always think about that if it's a species I don't know.
