I haven’t tried it yet but I read that it’s considered one of the best eating sharks. I’ll find out soon. It might taste like beer.

I read it on the internet....it must be true;-)
But, is there a reason you think it might not be? I caught and ate a dogfish shark couple of months ago and it was good but the meat was kinda soft before cooking. This sevengill is nice firm meat.

We have an abundance of them locally and have you ever seen them at the fish market? They piss through their skin so unless you're a seasoned shark eater, there are a lot of steps you'll have to go through to make it palatable.

On some of the NorCal boards they seem like popular table fare.

Soak the meat in Butter milk or Half and Half for 24 hours before cooking. Also, the biggest key to shark, is to field dress it RIGHT AWAY. And since this one was done minutes after catching, it should be good to go.
