Some folks say "If it has a pair of eyes and a butthole, it's a keeper!"

.. I have higher standards, 9" is a minimum for me. I do like my panfish fried up whole... but I won't rob the cradle!

If you know a fishes anatomy, you shouldn't have any problems eating them fried up whole!

... but some folks like to gulp it down whole... like a dog!:rolleyes:
