Mike, back in my diving day, I use to spear them, from time to time. The meat is exceptional, and in a round sheath, so it's tube meat, perfect for tacos. The one you had there is a small one, but be careful as the larger ones can do some damage, as a friend of my found out with a chunk of wetsuit missing from his rear, along with matching bite marks. If you do keep one, you'll need several knives to fillet it, as the shin is tough, tough, tough.
