This isn't an attempt at a smart-alecky question; can you eat ray? Just curious.

yeah you can eat em. but we dont. they say that alot of the scallops you find in restaurants are ray/shark meat. ive tried it just cut in strips and fried. not bad but a little on the strong side.

Wow! Killer excursions no doubt.

You guys were whackin' and stackin' em!

Shooting catfish was recently legalized here in Texas. Those look like some good eating-sized channel or blue cats there in that one pic.

Thanx for the post! Helps to get me fired up for this weekend.

I don't know if shooting cats is legal here or not. Those fish came out of one of our ponds. I was using them for target practice cause we throw out floating feed and the fish come up to eat it so good practice. And they are channels.
