Does anyone eat largemouth bass?

[Russ McDonald]

I eat salmon too and love it.  I have eaten trout and wasn't impressed.

ill eat em. and for those that hit the big C or the snake, i hear tell that they do as much damage to those little silver things heading down river as the walleye or the dreaded pike minnow. figure im just doing my part for recovery of the runs.

you should eat the cormorants, terns, and the pelicans instead of the largies... they do more harm to the little silver things by far.
 
I don't eat largies... there are better eating fish out there.

Eat every bass we catch which is leagle to keep! Very tasty!!!

If I grew up eating walleye in Minnesota like you, I probably wouldn’t be impressed with any freshwater fish ever again.

That is one tasty critter.

I just so happen to have some fillets in my freezer from Minnesota.  I keep forgetting they are there.

great deep fried..Ive even seared them over a fire with salt and pepper with olive oil and garlic... trout from freshwater = gross! ill eat a spiny ray any day

Bass filleted out, wrapped in foil with johnny's and mayo then cooked over low campfire coals, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......  When I was just out of high school I would spend a week at a time at my favorite lake bass fishing for 18 hours a day.  I lived on eating bass and crappie that I couldn't release.  I'd save them up though the day and cook them on a fire at my campsite.  Good stuff!

Really no difference eating a crappie or perch than a bass..just alot more meat on a bass

i haven't fished for bass in a long time, but i rarely kept them.  most of my bass fishing was in late summer, and they taste like mud that time of year.  of course, it is funny pissing off the sparkle barge crowd tossing a couple of keeper sized bass on the stringer!

Yeah, what's the big deal about keeping a few. It's not like bass are some rare delicate species of fish we need to baby along to propagate, they populate and spread pretty well. Bass need thinning at times and we need to eat.
