I know the cajuns eat 'em and there's a lot of places that serve
shark.

But are there any fishing (commercial) requirements for catching
shark, and are there only certain species that are acceptable.

I dont' know, that's why I'm asking....

Can't answer your questions but I can tell you I love to eat it when we
get it at the market..

When was the last time you saw marlin at a local market?

No Marlin, but I have seen the occasional whale in the diet soda isle!

snap roll - rimshot


Anyway, didn't know the conversation had turned to Marlin, thought the
subject line said something about Shark...

The conversation started about marlin.

And when was the last time you saw shark in the local market?

You can buy it at Jewel in IL. Nice steaks.

Mako? Delicious in my experience, a lot like swordfish.

No and it's another species that is over fished. A lot of species are
definned and left to die - don't even make it to the table.

Shark fin soup - big Asian delicacy.

Inshore there are regs. Some sharks can not be fished for, well unless you
are Judy Packard, and one is the Great White. Some sharks are good tasting
and not overfished, and others are never going to be edible. We could catch
Blue Sharks to an excess here, but they always will taste like ammonia.
threshers, seem to be doing OK off SoCal, but the sport fisherman, seem to
catch a lot of the smaller ones. San Francisco bay has 7 gills which are
supposed to be good eats, as well as Smooth Hound (sand Shark), that no one
eats, and you could catch a hundred a day if you were fishing for them. And
Leopard sharks, which are great eating, but have a 36" minimum size limit,
so they get to breed a few times before legal size. Most of the sharks that
are overfished are the open open ones, and that is the sharkfin trade, etc.

Geeze, the thread started about Marlin? Is that why the subject is about
Shark?? Yah, must be it...

As to the last time I saw shark in the store, I don't remember...

They are very similar in texture and taste.

I saw a pool shark once.

My wife saw some pool ducks in Amsterdam. When she went swimming, the
outdoor pool had mallards on it.

I know everything about anything in the San Francisco area. I've visited
there. Therefore, I know more about it than you do.
