Do you eat Snapper?

some of the larger models are a little rubbery in my opinion. But the smaller ones are awesome......still prefer some other fish like flatties, kgw, mahi mahi, coral trout etc

Mahi Mahi good eating?

Tried it and found them to be oily and fishy.

Taste great when uncooked, especially under 3kg sizes. Yeah. I enjoy sashimi style with wasabi in soy sauce. Flathead, whitinig and so on I would rate better over snapper when cooked.

Only ever had it in the US, nice white flesh, not fishy and it was grilled, also had it sashimi style over there.....never had it in OZ though......

Eaten them twice.

First time fish was caught in the middle of the day and put in ice slurry, filleted at the end of the day and pan fried with nothing but a touch of oil.

Second time fish was caught at the end of the day bleed gutted and put on ice. At the ramp and filleted within 1hr just enough time for the fish to be cold and firm.
Pan fried soon after with nothing but a touch of oil.

I have heard they need to be filleted immediately for good eating but this is not legal.

We also tried some sashimi the second time, wasn't good.

I guess it comes down to different strokes for different fokes.

Probably a good thing that we all don't like exactly the same fish my in laws love to eat a fish that most of us would throw back.

Imagine what would happen if every rec fishos only liked to eat KGW.
