How often do you eat fish?

Recommended Posts

over the past year I averaged probably two to three servings per week... mostly perch, walleye, trout and relatively often pike, bass and ling. I will buy a slab of salmon/arctic char once in a while, but mostly I catch my fishy dinners.

 

In my small household, walleye is definitely our favorite although the wife is really keen on trout!

 

What's your fish-eating routine like? ( waiting for Bill to say "Once this year" :D )

1-2 times per week. I never buy fish aside from the occasional can of tuna.

Perch and Channel cats get fried.

Walleye and whitefish gets fried or baked.

Lake trout gets bbq'd or smoked.

Specks get pan-fried in butter.

Pike and Bass get released... lol

(sea food, lobster , crabs , clams etc. )

 

Ya got that right Bruce.2-3 times a week.

Don,t forget the pasta with them. Carbs.

 

I,m slowly getting back into eating fresh water catches. First was crappie,then that whitie last weekend.

(with all the reports of dead ones,,It was hard to swallow it down)I,ll give the perch ago,,as soon as I can get a nice dozen eaters. But crappie are my fav. I only keep a catch to eat that day. No more freezing .

I like perch, prefer Simcoe to Erie perch and like Chris said if it's a nine it's good to dine!

 

on second thought ... If I could consistently catch Walleye I'm sure I'd change my preference... I'm just not that good :dunno:

Getting low on supply, that's how I know spring is coming, soon I hope. Fresh water at least once a week, as well seafood once a week. Just had a perch dinner tonight. I estimate the cost of those yellows were about $125.00 a pound by the time we rented the hut at St. Williams for $50.00 each etc. And only bagged 2 keepers. Still worth every penny, Oh forgot no penny's any longer, worth every nickel. While on the topic, does anyone really go by the Ministry guidelines for suggested consumption? 2 meals a week are going above these suggested guidelines, for some species twice a week is double for what we should consume from Lake Erie according to the scientists, bless them all. For someone pregnant I would certainly want them to adhere to the guidelines.

I only eat fish that I catch and only specific species I target... specks, walleye and pike is what I prefer :) So to answer your question... not that often these days :lol: since I haven't been out much this season :wallbash: love my proteins though :P Beef, porc and venison is on the menu more often then not.... but I love it :D
