The Gurnard/ Scorpion fish is not bad eating, however you must watch those spines on the dorsal, the spine is covered with skin, and under the skin is a VERY nasty venom.
To be stung by this fish, you will wish you had never been born, worse than Cobler or Flathead, I had the misfortune of being stung and thought I would never make it back to the ramp.
Now, I just cut them off.
Cheers, the ferret.
The only thing that will ease the pain and neutralise the venom is very hot water or tea or coffee poured onto the sting area..
