Bluegill, crappie, redear......they're all delicious....

bluegill

catfish (only if you let them sit in water with salt for hours to pull the blood and/or bad taste out of them) usually channel cats to me are the best

smaller bass

rainbow trout filets-marinated in italian dressing, then parmesan on top in a 375 degree oven until done mmm!

1. Walleye without a doubt the best tasting fish fresh or salt water

2. A good mess of crappie is a close second

3. Bluegill

The sign of a good tasting fish is how it tastes baked or broiled.  Much of the flavor of fried fish comes from the breading or batter and oil, no wonder it tastes so good, I like it myself.  Being in Florida I don't eat much freshwater fish anymore, prior to being here I was from Michigan and my family was in the fish business, besides being avid anglers, ate most of the common species.  Lake Superior whitefish is something I really miss.  

Lake whitefish anyone!?

IMO, a fresh caught trout tastes the best.

1. Perch.

2. Wild rainbow trout.

LMB , SMB , Walleye , Yellow Perch , Crappie , Bluegill .

 

Largemouth bass is very good. My dad always said he didnt like them. I have no idea where he came up with that. He gobbles them up when I fix them. If you fish a lake with a slot limit , keep a limit under the slot. You will help the fishery and have excellent table fare .

White perch

Rainbow trout is definitely up there....

Walleye. Had it once in nebraska, by far the best tasting freshwater fish I've ever tried.

Rainbow trout is definitely up there....

Rainbow trout and salmon are #2 and #3 for me.

I never use to like freshwater fish until I started cleaning them and cooking them. The trick is all in how you clean it.

No fishy taste.

No bones

No slime.

The skin is actually pretty good.

My favorite to eat is fried Crappie.

Crappie

Catfish

Largemouth Bass

Bull Bream

Flounder, lol

I actually dont like fish and my dad smokes trout and is awesome on woven crackers like triscets

Walleye, perch, northern pike, bullhead all taste good to me.

Mudbugs. 

Chain Pickerel, Yellow Perch, Large Mouth.

Rainbow Trout and Walleye. Pickerel are actually pretty good once you start fileting them well.

I've never had the opportunity to try Walleye, but I heard they were excellent.  I do like crappie very much, especially pan fried.

Freshwater==springtime cold  water bluegills scaled,pan fried in butter.

 

Many salt species striper,sheephead,tog,triggers,flounder

Looks like the Walleye is a very popular to eat.  I rarely take fish home (except when I'm ice fishing), but if I catch a legal Walleye, it's going to end up in the frying pan!
