    … and do you fancy going after fish that look like snakes and can wiggle across land?

    I haven’t read anything about their taste, but I’m guessing it might not be so good. Otherwise, every state’s Wildlife & Fisheries Dept would have sponsored a contest for the best recipe.

    According to the article....

    ''To encourage a market for snakeheads, Maryland legislators passed a law in 2024 officially changing its name from northern snakehead to “Chesapeake Channa,” a nod to its scientific name Channa argus. After a year, however, local restaurants said they either had dropped the new name or were using both.

    "Our customers ask for it by name,” said Hilarey Leonard, owner of Leo, an Annapolis farm-to-table restaurant that serves snakehead and grits with a smoky tomato broth.

    Ms. Bates and her husband keep all the fish they catch, turning some into a meal with a dense white texture.

    “It’s a really delicious fish,” Ms. Bates said about the snakehead. “I just sauté it with butter and herbs.”

    She seems to be in the minority in her culinary praise.

    Of course, if inflation continues to cut into household budgets, people may come to like the dish enough to stop these creatures from taking over inland lakes and rivers.

    Who says there’s no upside to inflation?
