Its a mushy meat. Some people make patties out of them, Just like you would make salmon patties.

Also heard them called a shoe-pick. Heard they are full of bones. Ones I've caught get hit in the head before they come in the boat. They are a big problem on game fish.

Place your cypress trout on a 1X8 blank of appropriate length.
Strip the skin offa dat sucka.
Gash it on both sides every 2 inches or so.
Salt & Peppa to taste.
Bake on plank in oven at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
Pull fish and plank oudda dat oven.
Gently scrape da fish into da trash heap.
Cut up and enjoy da plank!
