Just wondering. I have caught dozens of them and today, for the first time, I brought home a nice cow nose ray and cooked up the fillets from the wings/fins. Now, getting nice fillets definitely didn't happen, but I got the meat out and cooked it. Half was deep fried with panko stuff and the other half was baked in butter and a garlic herb sauce while covered with foil. Both turned out great, but I did like the baked one a bit more. I'm not saying I'm going to keep every one I catch, but I may take one home every once in a while if I snag a big one. Fun fish to catch and now in my book, good eating. Definitely a different texture than any other fish I've eaten, and the meat was definitely different than any fish I've cut up. When I was getting the meat out I kind of looked at it like "can I even eat this sh**". Well, yes I can. The more beef like texture has me thinking of what I can eat it with. Going to sleep tonight dreaming about the big fat ray and smoked gouda sandwich I'll be taking to work for lunch tomorrow, along with the ray, eggs, and toast I'll be having for breakfast
