They said "beat" not "eat" a hardhead.
Nobody I know would even think about eating one. They are despised. One place in Venice last year you could catch one on a plastic on everycast if you slowed it down much. There wasn't anyway to totally avoid them. Absolute menaces.

I won't consider eating a hardhead but gafftop are pretty decent when blackened. There are a lot of fish I prefer over them tho. The secret I found to removing slime is to put them on a stringer (no float) and let them roll around in the surf on the beach. They come out completely slime free....the stringer on the other hand, not so much!
