It's delicious. I haven't tried the fish packaged by them, but had some at Crankfest of 18 and it was awesome.

I have heard varying reports on how it taste. I will have to find some and try for myself.

I did too and it was very good

I haven't tried it. I get several in my boat, especially this time of year, and have contemplated taking one home and cutting a few chunks off of it to try, but I just can't get past the awful smell. I'm sure the fillets don't stink like the actual fish, but when one jumps in the boat it takes forever for the smell to finally wash away, especially if they get on the carpet.

Bet the processing plant smells nice

I had a sample taste at the KY shindig several years back. I didn't spit it out.

I also had them fried at one of the shindigs. They were very good. Several years back I was at a sporting goods store on the Illinois River and they were promoting different ways to utilize them. They were giving away bottles of liquid, well semi liquid, fertilizer that was made from them.
They also had made a big cooker of sloppy joes out of them. Made like barbecue or hunts man-which. It was good. It tasted almost the same as the hunts man-which stuff.

Well I went to the IGA and bought two bags for our weekly finger food Friday beer session this past week. I gotta say I’d eat it any day. I’d rather have carp than catfish. Not quite as good as crappie but it’s real close. The texture is firm. I’ll start keeping them when I take the bow out.
