Catfish question

[RUGER]

Skimming around the book of face and one of the pages I follow had a picture of a catfish.
Guy was saying he just recently discovered how good belly meat was.
Then another guy said, don't forget the cheek meat and tongues.

Never in my life have I ever heard of eating a catfish tongue.
Am I the only one?

 

[DCA-DEER]

[JBell]

Some people are just weird……

 

[Tn Joe]

Nuff said. Once you say those words, nothing has to make sense afterwards

Don't know about tongues, but there was a Meat eater show where they were after flatheads. A lot of discussion about their belly meat and like a cult following.

If you can eat squirrel brains, catfish tongue doesn't seem out of the question.

I can still hear that POP when my granddaddy would smack a head with that spoon.

I was introduced to belly meat by a friend of mine last year after he had caught several nice size flat heads, the stuff doesn't even taste like fish. Pretty tasty I will say.

Some people down here will take a catfish head and clean it to make what they call a Catfish Courtbuillion. (Coo-be-yon). I talked to a lady that had a seafood market. She bought whole catfish and cleaned them. The big ones she would also sell the heads to people who wanted them. She said some people wanted her to clean them first, but she said she's not doing that, got to take the whole head.

Fishing in AK, the outfitter always cut the cheek meat out of Rock Fish & Halibut first thing. Alaskan Sushi is awesome!

That's what I was going to ask cause that's what I've always been told

 

[Huntaholic]

IF its a big enough cat, there is a substantial size piece of "cheek meat" on each side.

Grandma's favorite part of the squirrel was the brains, my uncles shot the game and caught the fish she cut and skinned it all, no filet knife for her, split and scaled cornmealed and fried lol. I will pass on the belly's cheeks and other parts not normally ate

 

[Bloodwolf1984]

Eat the belly meat...best part of the fish

 

[gasman]

Belly meat of a Flathead is like filet mignon of the river.

 

[Chapman]

The Catfish nuggets they sell in the store is belly meat.
