Opah is good eating.
In one photo, you can clearly see the lines of the net embedded into it’s flesh.

Tuna fishing before dawn off New Jersey we had one breach next to the boat once. Kinda funny to hear 40 guys yell “WHOA!” in unison. The “Holy .....”s came afterward.

Yummy BBQ!
It's Moby Dick!
We’re gonna need more tartar sauce...and a bigger boat.

(I know your post was -Sarc-, but couldn’t resist posting that photo).

If you don’t like Sunfish, you suck.
A dozen fried bluegill ain’t bad either.
It’s a monsterously large fish, but must not have many predators. It may not even be that dangerous unless it is fast, aggressive and tends to attack in groups. Look at how small the mouth is in proportion to everything else. I don’t see any big jaw bones to open wide and swallow or bite anything massive. Perhaps it lives mostly on vegetation.
"We're gonna need a bigger boat!"
And people say my fear of open water is unfounded!
Good Lord! That just set me back another DECADE while I’m trying to get my nerve up to go on a cruise!
“In Russia the Sunfish eats YOU!”

cool!
