Stripers And Whites In Fall?

[WHARFRAT]

I guess some people just don't like the taste of them. Or maybe they don't think they like the taste of them for some reason. I'll bet I could cook a white, a crappie and a walleye and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference in the three.

But I like all kinds of fish.

Up in Canada, I would eat the Northerns and walleyes that were fried together......other than the size, you couldn't tell the difference in the taste. Both excellent!

I have a relative who won't eat white bass. But he cuts the red meat out of crappie.

didn't know crappie had red meat

I haven't noticed a (strong taste) I benn eating them for years. I have picky girls so it has to be top notch fish for them to eat. Walleye whites flathead and crappie. I've never heard complaints on the whites and hybrids. They are most similar to saltwater fish I get from gulf

I also like them, except for my inability to find biters during the summer...but I'm working on that. There certainly is a difference in the eating, though. I've found whites to be a bit richer--more oils. Of course, the fish I've eaten have been from much earlier in the year, and I don't know if the warmer water affects flavor/eating quality or not. I much prefer white bass to halibut. The oils might make them good candidates for smoking--and here I'm talking Northwest-style smoking, which is very slow and uses a marinade/rub rather than just an hour or so on a grill.

As for the catching, the last trip out was uneventful--had one strike (maybe) and one fish apparently look at the gear, based on sonar. But the algae was fairly thick, and I was fishing in mid-day. I'm going to drop the trolling and go back to casting/jigging until the lake clears.

Psssttttt Point 6 that is all I will say, I will add however its not hard to figure out where they are with the amount of boats on them.
