Cuisine & Edibility
큰꼬치고기
Firm, lean white flesh with a mild flavor when small; larger individuals risk ciguatera fish poisoning and are generally avoided. Smaller fish eaten grilled or fried in the Caribbean.
Muskellunge
Lean, firm white meat with a mild flavor; challenging to prepare due to complex bone structure. Edible when properly filleted — baked or fried — but mostly released by sport anglers.

Muskellunge
