vaparrothead Posted October 24, 2021 Author Posted October 24, 2021 After careful consideration I think you all are correct; more like 5 lbs, plus. At the time I was so nervous/scared about being bit or losing him that I wasn't thinking clearly. Didn't know Snakeheads have such a hard head, tried to stab him through his "skull" to the brain and ran into what I thought was armor plate!! Well live and learn. Ran knife through his eyes and should have gutted him but again wasn't thinking clearly. Know better next time Quote
spokey9 Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 Cut a couple of gills...not as messy as gutting...and he'll still bleed out 1 Quote
vaparrothead Posted October 25, 2021 Author Posted October 25, 2021 Thanks, when (not if) I catch another I'll try that Quote
gnappi Posted December 14, 2021 Posted December 14, 2021 Snakehead are good eating, did you try it? Quote
georgeyew Posted December 14, 2021 Posted December 14, 2021 Nice snakehead. Where did you catch it? Quote
