That's a dandy for sure Mike. He broke his own record right. Someone started a thread about this state record channel cat. I think the title had your name in it 🤔.

So, what happens with a big piece of meat like that? Let’s suppose it’s not catch and release……can it make steaks, or cutlets, or chops? But, mainly, what would it taste like?

Albinism is a genetic trait which generally is not common in the population because the critters that have two of the gene, one from each parent, have the trait and are much easier to see, therefore get eaten more which takes the genes out of the breeding cycle. So they're rare.
