Gentlemen, they are called soapies because of the slippery liquid covering their scales when they are young - Not because they taste like soap.

Yes you are absolutely right. I always thought it was because a jewie smaller than about 70cm had soft mushy flesh that has a very neutral, soaplike flavour - hence not very pleasant until they get to the larger size.

It is funny how different version of fishing theories and techniques morph over time!
