... Sure is ugly, but anything that tastes like Lobster can't be all bad  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BurbotWould be interesting to probe the collective minds and see what ya all think.

Thanks Chris,
They are on our approved species list.
Sure would be interesting to get a bunch in a 3-400 gallon tank and see how they fare. I think we have one producer in MI, haven't checked for a while, but will.

This fish was/is subject to a reare fishing method in Norway.
"Kubbe fiske" translated "Bat fishing"
In the winter they come in to realy shallow water under the ice,
When spotted the bat(basebalbat) or kubbe was hammerd in to the ice
knoking the fish unconshes, then you make a hole in the ice and pick up the fish.
The fish was higely valued for it's strong skin.
Nice meat I dont agree that it taste like lobster, no more than saltwater cod does.
But it taste realy good thats for sure, common all over Norway, usualy 1-3 pounds but record fish on rod 50 pounds.
A lot of sport fishers throw them out because they look ugly.

I hate to sound judgmental, but the entire cod family is ugly as a mud fence.
But,,, they're as tasty as they are ugly.

I don't think they taste like lobster, but the meat is way good cubed and boiled in 7up. They do make a carp look pretty though.
Good morning Dave, I've checked the ships systems, and everything appears to be running normally.

This one looks Happy  This one looks sad   Oh, the life and times of a Burbot. Kinda cute if they have a twinkle in their eye and a smile on their face.

But,,, they're as tasty as they are ugly. They don't call 'em lawyer fish for nothin'. Rich in taste and ugly! Sorry Eric!  Of course you're the exception.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
