I live in Puerto Rico. I caught a parrotfish on hook and line yestereday (which I've never heard of anyone doing). I haven't speared any because nobody here seems to eat parrotfish. I grew up in Florida where they were protected. I've always heard they were a real ciguatera risk around here. I know they are eaten in a lot of places. Are they any more dangerous to eat than any other reef fish?
I know they are supposed to be very good sashimi. Are they good cooked as well? How? I saw some references that said that the flesh is soft and spoils quickly.
Thanks,
Mike
