Thirty pound+ fish taste like crap. If you poke around their body cavity, by their internal organs, you'll see thumb-nail sized parasites that look like something from outer space.

Another myth,they don't really taste any different than 20 pound fish. Go to a place that knows how to cook it and I think you will agree.When restaurants buy the fish they want the larger size because the yield is more cost effective. I have heard the littles are tasty though.

God I hate to agree with Chris....
A bled, cared for bigger fish to me tastes as good as a 12lb rat.
Most bigger fish aren't bled/gutted immediately b/c people want to get an accurate weight....

OK , Back-in-the-day
When commercial fishing was a free for all
the large dealers // the ones that shipped paid by size
16" to 6 # were select .top money
6#+ to 15# Mediums
15#+ & over large
many small dealers wouldn,t even take anything over 10#
depending on when & where selects where worth anywhere between . 4 to 8 X,s large .
Even last year I saw that one dealer started putting around the 34" ,35" in different boxes than the large ><><><
