I never understood why someone would take good bait and eat it raw, when all they would have to do is put some on a hook and catch a perfectly good food fish, broil it, bake it, or fry it and have a feast. ;)
You sound like my husband..............
If one more person tells me that "it tastes so good" I am going to scream. Maybe it is because I come from the land of brown muddy (and polluted) water, but fish needs to be cooked.
Yup, that's how I feel about raw clams and oysters, too.....bait.
You just don't appreciate other cultures.
Good, neither do I.
I don't understand that either. You could put one of those little sushi rolls on a 3/0 hook, drop it down over a grouper hole in the Gulf of Mexico and snag a 10 pound black grouper. But the Japanese would rather eat that one little hunk of raw bait than the 10 lb grouper, dredged in cornmeal and deep fried crispy brown like God intended fish to be eaten.
I guess that's what makes those inscrutable orientals so inscrutable.
