I'm not an expert by any means, but I do know that the larger ones get worms. On the eastern shore my buddies only keep the ones 40lbs and under to avoid the worms. I have caught a few, smaller side, and they were delicious.

The worms won't hurt ya if you cook them thoroughly. And plenty of bread crumbs with hot grease. MMMM

the worms are found in the tail section and around the anal vent. just cut them out, your not losing that much meat.
the ribs are also good.
