Let's Eat!!

[katoguy]

For fish that I can catch in our state:

Perch, sunfish, walleye.

I don't know how people put mushy, fall-apart crappies as high as they do??? (Although I had 2 meals last week of crappie, I couldn't find decent sunnies.)

Freshwater - walleye, crappie, salmon, pickled pike

Saltwater - Tuna steaks, flounder, halibut, various kinds of sushi/sushimi

[fishinJohn]

I only keep perch for the most part and that is because I find them so deep it kills them coming to the surface. I'll also keep some bluegill. If I could get out and catch salmon I would keep them too. Otherwise the fish I eat are tuna, swordfish, and Mahi Mahi. If I could catch king crab around here I would fish for nothing else.

[FishGUY]

Walleye and panfish.

[mainbutter]

Salmon is by far the most common for me to keep, sure is delicious too. I love that my parents live in alaska, always have tons of fishing fun when I visit them.

yellowfin tuna. in home-made sushi rolls/nigiri. Don't need no cookin'!

And on the subject of sushi, I LOVE unagi(freshwater eel). I'm going to the local asian supermarket with frozen fish later to pick some up and try my hand at cooking it right.

I LOVE mahi-mahi as well.

My ultimate favorite home-cooked dish though is blackened red snapper, using my favorite cajun recipe from my few years in Louisiana as a kid.

Of course the best tasting fish is always the pan-fried shore lunch over a wood fire, on some middle-of-nowheresville lake in canada. It doesn't matter if you're cooking northerns or lake trout or bass or walleye, that food always tastes better than any other.

My wife would have Bullhead high on her list, but, not I.

[pegleg]

One fish I have not seen on here but I like to eat is fresh smelt, early in the spring time. Don't like to clean them but they are a lot like martinni's - 1 meal is great, 2 is ok and 3 is too many.

[Sandmannd]

Walleyes, Northerns, Bass, Panfish, Pearch, Trout, Halibut, Shrimp, not sure if I can think of any else, but they are all tastey.

[glenn57]

sunfish, perch, northerns-fried-pickled or smoked, grilled or smoked salmon/lake trout walleyes, smoked bullheads, smelt fries. for non-native fish halibut, cod. i really dont eat a lot of fish if any in resturants.

[Weed Shark]

Fresh fish is the best. Take a walleye fillet that was flopping on the cleaning table a few minutes ago, throw it in a fry pan and visibly see it shrinking.

I was fired up for smoked salmon when I went to Alaska...the shops on our North Shore are better than anything I found up there.

[andrew chadwick]

I forgot smelt. when fresh caught, only hours ago and fried it is probably my favorite fish. dip it in tartar sauce and its oh so good.

Once its been frozen might as well throw it to the cats.

Is it april yet???

[TonkaBass]
