Caught a mess of fish out of the navasota tonight...crappie, bass, sandies, and a gasper goo (prolly 2 pounds)...I went ahead and filleted it and plan on frying it with the rest...Will I need to call a MD in the morning?

No sir. Goos are good eating, especially those under 5 to 6 pounds. Bon Apetit chef

i cleaned some and kept them seperate last weekend. they are really firm with a little red meat. didnt have a very strong taste either. the meat had a slightly yellow tint to it after being fried. i'd eat them again. there are much better fish out there to eat but freshwater drum are better than just "edible".

After I fried it with all the other fish listed above, I could definitely pick out the drum pieces...didn't taste bad so to say, but definitely not on par with the other fish I fried. I will prolly go back to releasing any others I catch like I have done in the past.
