I agree on nothing under ten unless you kill it. . . Just not enough to fillet you pretty much have to go old school and scale them to even have enough for a bite. Next to walleye crappie is my favorite fish to eat but have found that if you are feeding family and guest try serving catfish next time. I coat them in mustard then corneal. . . They are delicious. . . But really it's all about how you clean them.
