For the fish listed Burbot #1, Native Trout #2 and Perch/Walleye #3.
They'll all eat though.

I will eat almost any type of fish, AS LONG AS IT IS FRESH! When one cathes his own fish, he can guarantee their freshness. Fish that are marginally edible or even inedible by my standards from tepid summer water become delicacies when caught through ice. Examples are yellow perch and bass - I don't really want to eat these unless caught through ice. I also do not let bones influence my rating of the table manners of fish. How hard is it to really pull Y bones out of a cooked pike fillet? Not too difficult. Also, the flaky white delicacy known as fried pickerel includes those fine bones that cannot be romoved. SO? They are fine enough to chew up and not worry about. If people did not freak out so much about the bones in pickerel, the pickerel honey holes that I fish would be elbow to elbow fishermen in the winter.

On page 9 and I have not even seen my Favorite fish thus yet so I have to contribute…..Hands down an by far the best tasting fish in my book is fresh caught Atlantic Cod. Fish and chips.
Freshwater fish –fried breaded perch fillets caught from water temps below 40 or a close second smoked salmon or trout.

Perch. Pain to gut but worth it.

If it FRIED it's good! But Crappie is my new addiction! Can't get enuff!

purduebass · « **Reply #126 on:** Dec 27, 2007, 01:00 AM »

If I had to pick one it would be walleye. But who can go wrong with any of them. MMMMM fresh fish and a cold one.

I know what I'm cooking for dinner tonight.

Perch #1, Walleye #2. Perch boiled in light salt water then dipped in melted butter . OH BABY!!!

FISHFORPIKE · « **Reply #143 on:** Dec 12, 2010, 11:18 AM »

Pike - but only from under the ice

And I have found a huge difference in flavor/taste from one body of water to another. I LOVE pike from Black lake - meat is darker and much more tasty - 8)
Edit - Also, gotta know how to filet them boney critters. After that, they are a tasty meal.

tipup_time · « **Reply #144 on:** Dec 12, 2010, 11:21 AM »

i agree.. pike all the way.. you gotta get em bigger than 30" though otherwise their more work than its worth with the ybones.. but the meat is even better than walleye

hertzy · « **Reply #145 on:** Dec 12, 2010, 11:26 AM »

As I fish all waters and all year round, I have to put a vote in for Black Sea Bass or Porgy's "Scup". I know their impossible to find them under the ice, but there are good eating!

Rebelfisher · « **Reply #146 on:** Dec 30, 2010, 07:25 PM »

agree 100% with results, but really cant believe bluegill wasnt closer to the top? maybe not as many guys fish for 'em

tipup_time · « **Reply #147 on:** Dec 30, 2010, 08:49 PM »

definatly northern pike. lots of guys havent tried it but once they do they swear that it is the best walleye they ever ate.. nope its a pike.. also, lake trout is VERY good, and brook trout aint bad either.. walleye beats panfish up and down and 1 22" walleye is the same meal as 6 medium panfish and WAAAYYY easier to clean

Rebelfisher · « **Reply #148 on:** Dec 30, 2010, 08:52 PM »

ya, northerns are very good too. many people dont know to remove all the y bones properly

stinkypete · « **Reply #149 on:** Jan 04, 2011, 09:20 PM »

Have not found a fish i didn't like to eat but perch for the ease of cleaning and soft edible bones. Then Pike and Walleye!!!
