Tasted my first Crappie

[Guest]

I was Ice fishin this weekend in Ma. and brought a nice 13 inch Crappie that I caught the weekend before to have for lunch. I cooked it up on my charcoal grill in an old cast iron pan with butter and onions. It was great! The best freshwater fish (other than trout) I've ever tasted! Too bad the fishin was not so good or I could have had some more to eat. First time I've gotten skunked this year on the ice. Had a great year so far though. Need to get some more of those Crappies... Yum Yum

inmy opinion walleye adn northern tastes better than crappie. dont get me wrong i love crappie to but i would rather have a nice walleye or northern fillet. congrats on the first crappie though.

Next time try a 10 inch crappie. I think you will find them a little better eating then a 13 incher. However, it is nice to have lake that you can catch them up to 13 inches!
