I've eaten plenty of them, but bream, catfish & crappie are better.

I do actually. A 2 lb bass fillet is as good as crappie. White and flakey. I dont very often but a few times a year Ill keep 2 or 3 for the wife and I.

I am too busy catching them to take time to clean them. When I get off the lake at the end of the day, I don't want to mess with cleaning some fish.

We all definitely enjoy some black bass fillets. Baked, smoked, grilled or fried its delish.

About 15 yrs ago, my mom got me an outdoor cookbook and it had a recipe for bass and we tried it, then the next time with crappie. We enjoyed the crappie more, so there you go. I dont care for catfish either really, dont like the taste. We eat lots of specks and flounder also.

(2) I'm to lazy to clean them
(3) They are really not that good compared to other fish

If I wanna eat fish I go to Pappadeaux's. smile

I've eaten my weight in black bass over the years but nowadays the last thing I want to do after fishing all day is clean a fish. lol

When we catch fish for food we go after the Walleye. If somebody wants to catch and eat Bass that are legally harvested that's their business.

Im afraid to be labeled and judged by the tourney fishermen.

Actually mostly fish Alan Henry and JB Thomas.

I personally believe its too soon to take fish out of Thomas.

On Henry I fish alone most of the time and Im not gonna dirty the knife for 2 spots as I have no desire to filet an 18+ fish.

When on Amistad we typically keep 2-3 14-15 fish per fisherman for a fish fry 1 night.

On OH Ive we usually catch enough whites for a meal. Dont think I would ever put a knife to a smallmouth on any of the lakes we catch them on.

So depends on the lake Im fishing.
