My favourite fish to eat is the first eater-sized one of the camping trip...the quicker to the pan, the better!

By far:

 

Salmon

Trout

Bass

Perch

Pike

 

.... my personal top 5, mind you, all fish taste good!

[BassAsin]

speckle trout in the 12-18" range

[brifishrgy]

Perch, walleye, bass, catfish (under 2lbs), crappie in no particular order...nothing better then a fresh fish fry which is why I always bring a camp stove with me ... not a big fan of trout or salmon or saltwater fish

[Spiel]

....I'm good with most fish I bring home but the kids love whitefish and GB steelies! The one thing I never do is freeze 'em, always serve 'em fresh.

[OhioFisherman]

Bluegill, Perch, Crappie, Walleye, Catfish, Steelhead, Halibut, Shark, Tipalia, Orange Roughy, all were good, just not much of a fish eater or keeper, well sardines, tuna, and salmon out of a can. And McFish.

[12footspringbok]

Perch, Walleye, and smoked rainbow for me for sure. I'll eat pretty much any species though, if fresh that is...

[Greencoachdog]

Grouper (especially the Scamp!), and any kind of Snapper from salwater

 

Crappie and Catfish from cold freshwater!

[BITEME]

Fresh water

Pike

Salt water

Mackeral

Whatever someone else is going to make me while I drink another cold Labatt's Blue Light

[denisk]

Most fish for me compare to beef tenderloin or great lamb and I'd eat all sorts of fish with equal enjoyment to those meats.

 

Of all the trout, small brookies are my favorite, fried whole in butter.

 

Of local freshwater I'll take pike over walleye and whitefish, BBQ'd on the plank.... with garlic butter.

 

Of all salmon I like Atlantic, again, cooked on the plank.... maybe with a little apple-curry, or maple salsa garnish.

 

For chowder if I can get arctic char that's the bomb. Most flavourful.

 

Of southern Ontario fish I'll take perch over anything... except maybe crappie which I can't remember tasting but know I have. Battered and deep fried with a good squeeze of lemon.

 

Louisianna or blackened catfish... droooooool!!! LoneStar used to sell it with shrimp, was a favorite but not enough people ordered it so it got canned. A shame.

 

Tried many ocean fish but I'd have to say halibut is number 1, followed closely by grouper and mahi mahi. Red snapper and fresh yellowfin are pretty darned good also.

A favorite... impossible,

 

copy that

[JerseyDog]

Pike out of the ice!

[Bob Devine]

For me yellow perch are the best followed by walleyes.

[Fishing 24/7]

What about White fish???????? YUMI!!!!!!

[Beans]

Haddock or cod...don't care much for salmon but had some poached recently and it was good...snapper is nice also

 

Grew up eating bullheads from Scugog but don't catch many anymore...

 

Perch and crappie as long as Crappieperchhunter cleans them (nary a bone)

 

Smallmouth bass in the 2 to 2 1/2 lb. range

[Radnine]

I was never a big fish eater until late. The key I think is knowing that it is cleaned correctly. If I even think that there might be a bone I eat tentatively and thar ruins the meal.

Here is my list:

Perch

Walleye

Anything form the chippies down the road.

[wallyboss]

Not much of a fish eater but these are my 2 favorites

1) Crappies

2) Walleyes

[MCTFisher9120]

My first two species l liked to eat were bass and catfish....but im starting to like pike now also, not sure if this is good or bad.

[crappieperchhunter]

Perch is #1 for me.

 

Coldwater pike under 30 inches, Small stream specs,fresh caught smelts and crappies would all be a 2nd choice.
