Hey, I've caught one of those when I was in my teens, a long long time ago, but seems like just a few days ago. Just can't sometimes recall what I did 5 minutes ago! I didn't know they were called hairtails, to me a ribbonfish.

Yes they are a weird looking fish. One day fishing Moses Lake (near Dickinson Bayou-Dickinson, TX, seems like that was all we could catch. Every cast. They are wiry little dudes and put up a surprising good fight. Don’t know if you can eat them.

I have heard that they are good to eat. I know my cat ate a pretty good-sized one a few years ago (the whole enchilada). On a multi-treble wire rig they are great slow-trolled dead for king mackerel. Caught a bunch one time on Mirrolures from the Coast Guard dock at Cape Lookout , NC.

As I said, I saw a bunch of them in an open-air market in Korea along with a whole bunch of other fish. I remember them because they're really unique. Look kinda like baby dragons.
