I've never squirrel hunted. I have a stupid question: Do you actually eat the squirrels? I know some people that let them lay.

Thanks for any insight.

I really like bacon wrapped baked squirrel. Just google squirrel recipes and you will find thousands of them.

Agreed they need to be cooked right as described above to be good.

squirrel is my absolute favorite game meat, better than marinated wild turkey breast, or any form of venison.
