Years ago I read somewhere that the flavor and texture of sturgeon resembles that of scallops. I also read stories about sturgeon being so oily and plentiful in the great lakes that the Indians used to net them and dry them on racks in the sun to burn as winter fuel. Any who, I've always wanted to try some but have never seen it on a menu anywhere or even for sale in a supermarket. The only legal way to fish for them in Michigan is to spear them and then only if you are one of the lucky few to draw a permit.
I'm going to presume that maybe so e of the northern folks on here may have had some luck getting sturgeon so I'm asking, what does it taste like? Being as oily as it's supposed to be, it seems like it would be a good fish to smoke too. Have any of you done so?
