I certainly hope the choupique caviar is better than the smoked
choupique. Cajun friend of mine's family has made the smoked choupique,
aka bowfin, aka grinnel, aka Cajun trout, aka Cypress trout, for lots of
years and they like it. It tastes muddy to me.

Choupique will commonly strike lures tossed for bass and will excite you
for awhile until you discover what it is. I always throw them back and
maybe that's good for the caviar business in Louisiana.
