Favorite fish to eat?

[catman529]

Since that other thread I posted asking about gills, I figured why not ask what some favorites are. What's your favorite freshwater fish to eat, or maybe more specifically, your favorite fish limited to Tennessee?

I haven't tried very many but fried catfish is always good.

Walleye is at the top of my list then the crappie is a close second.

 

[Woodchuck]

Mine would have to be yellow perch caught through the ice. Winter caught fish are the best by far.

sauger

 

[PickettSFHunter]

Walleye. Just hard to get a good mess in my county unless you get them from someone that nets or grab hooks when they spawn.

4 way tie between white bass, yellow perch, bluegill, and crappie.

Although a 1-3lb channel cat or blue is great too.

[RUGER]

I guess the best I ever had was sauger.

My favorite is catfish fillets from Boyettes.
You get full then get up and walk away.
No prep work or cleanup. :D

 

[moondawg]

Saltwater: Mahi mahi

Freshwater: Trout or catfish

 

[4onaside]

Bream(Bluegills,Redears, etc.)
Crappie, Small Bass
White Bass are very good if you cut the red meat off the fillet.
Just about any of the so-called game fish are good.
I eat catfish fillets or whole small fish just about every time that I go to a restaurant. Like Ruger says, hassle free.

 

[4onaside]

And Boyettes, Lakeview and the Pier were my favorite sources of "hassle free" fried crappie, until the Reelfoot sale of crappie ceased.

 

[woodchuckc]

1. Walleye / sauger
2. Crappie
3. Bream
4. Trout
5. Bass
6. Catfish

That's down here. If I was back up in the UP of Michigan, smelt and smoked redhorse sucker would be up at # 3, and northern pike would be at #5.
