Everyone says wild game "taste like chicken" lolol.

What do triggefish taste like? Sweet? Sour? Tough? Tender?

Boy.... this post gone right in the crapper.

its a white fleshed fish, a bit sweet. Fileting through their armor skin is a pain though, they come in at times for me while fishing reefs on long island for tautog, and black sea bass. They are a nice little surprise

lol i hope some people here dont kill me for fishing and eating triggers, they are pretty huge whenever i get them
No worries.. lol .. There’s people that spearfish and kill all kinds of fish we see in the aquarium hobby!!! Like this one . Now, I must say, the Emperor Angelfish is probably my favorite or close to it of all saltwater fish. I wonder if this guy knew how much this thing would sell for. Haha. Or maybe he/she was just really hungry.
