Last time i ate them was 65 years ago. I liked catching them more than eating them as a kid.

I'm sure that was the one (in Prior Lake) that I was thinking of. There were various price groups on the menu. You paid for that group and could have as much as you wanted of anything in that price group.

Frog legs are good eats. Just be sure where they come from.

A lot of them that are commercially available are imported from Asia. Farmed in nasty azz water.

We used to gig the pizz out of em.

I remember one spell between my sophomore and junior year in HS we gigged from dark til daylight for 3 or 4 nights straight. Had one hell of a mess of legs to go with my pards dad's fish fry. Good thing we never got caught as we were well over our limits.

Back in the 60's and 70's you could ride around a few ponds and shoot a five gallon bucket full in a short time. That was before we had cattle egrets, and then I think some chemical or the other did them in. miles

I like them okay, not as good as calf fries if weโ€™re talking deep fried novelty food. But we donโ€™t have the frogs in numbers around here like we used to. We still get some bigguns but we usually just catch and release them after a photo op. [Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]

The only bad ones I've had were either cooked wrong or had been lying under a heat lamp too long on a buffet. All I've ever had, & I've had a bunch were chicken fried.

For the first time trying them, commercially farm raised that the stores & restaurants have will be mild, just like catfish. For the true flavor & best IMO, if wild caught.

And yeah, the one TheKid Jr. is holding might be a little tough. Might be best to release one that big.

Farmed from the orient are fishy sometimes. The frogs we go out and catch locally out of the rivers are delicious fried. Top notch eats.

I dip them in an egg wash and shake up in corn starch. fry in a skillet in shallow oil and.flip. Fresh caught ones will kick in the skillet. Cooked right they are one of the best things to eat fried.
