The invasive lion fish off the American east coast is fucking delicious. By far one of the tastiest fish.

They stay deep enough it’s hard to get them in large enough numbers, but it’s easy to believe eating away the problem would work if that gets solved.

Crab harvesting is a solved problem, so you’re probably onto something in this case.

They're delicious but they also have venomous spines all over them that are extremely painful.

It make fishing them quite dangerous unfortunately.

Cleaning and cooking is more difficult as well. Worth the effort though. You could honestly serve lionfish the same way a steakhouse does steak.
