Crappie are one of my favorite eating fish.  As I got older, I started fileting them instead of scaling and frying whole.  At some point I realized they didn't taste as good as I remembered.  I fried some up old school and liked them better.  I then realized that if I scaled them, then fileted without skinning, I still got that yummy sweet flavor that the skin adds to it.

Fish on.....    :drool:
