I'll avoid eating bullheads especially if they're caught during the hot summer period because I heard they taste very muddy.

Holy cow, I never thought of eating a Sculpin/Bullhead before. Someone should really post a recipe for those bait-stealing b@st@rds. I'd love to cook them up, just to teach them a lesson.

Bullheads (the bottom feeders in ocean) have lots of bones in them so i woudln't recomend eating them. I"ve seen them for sale in Chinatown but from what i hear people use the fish to make soup but the fish are put in bags so the bones are kept away from the soup. Personally i have no idea how they make the soup but i hear if you make it welll it taste pretty good.

TandT supermarket , there are several in the lower mainland sells bullheads at $3.00 per pound. To some orientals they are very good eating.Most bullheads are either steamed or fried.Bullheads are sold live in a tank and you pick the ones you want. Some times they even sell sturgen, however these sturgen are black and are very small.I have been told they are farm raised.

My relaitives in Ont. eat the freshwater vertion of our Bullheads, they call Mudcats. Close inspection will show you that they are the same fish horns and all. I tried them once when my relies cooked up a bunch, didn't turn my palet on.

Can anyone post a picture of the bullhead you are talking about.  I only found the freshwater Brown Bullhead version online which I caught often at Burnaby Lake.  Thanks.
