Toner how did y'all do? we saw Cajun spearit @ Sherman & he got 12 bugs for sure.... I understand these lionfish are to be turned in for the tourney & subsequently donated to University & FWC for study....

Good for you guys... does the meat freeze well. Those little filets would make a great sandwich or a breakfast meat.

Otherwise I'd cut off the spines and make chum/crabtrap bait out of them

They freeze just fine.....I cut off the spines,head,guts with shears.....freeze them....cook them up later. They are great breaded and fried.....or pick the meat and make some AWESOME fish cakes!

Scott, can you show us what you put them in?
Its a canvas bag with wire hoop closure at the top and some netting at the bottom for drainage. Got it at MBT.
Here is some video I put together for the Emerald Coast Reef Association.....it shows the first lionfish I ever saw here in Pensacola a few years ago.....some footage of me bagging some lions....and some compilation shots of lions on our livebottom reefs.
