How do you rank fried bluecat among others ?

I like blue cat and goo in courtbouillion.

Depends on the blue cat I reckon. I've caught some big ones that tasted fine but had a funky texture to them. Other big ones were fine all around. The ones that had funky texture were out of lakes and were chunky chodes. The others were out of the Mississippi and long and lean.

Never had a small one that I'd complain about.

I like the smaller blues ok over about 5-10 lbs I don’t care for.

I prefer yellow cat

1. Crappie
2. Bream
3. Flathead
4. Blue
5. Channel

I catch blues up to 75-80 pounds each year here in Missouri. I never keep them when they are over 20. The smaller ones if cleaned properly taste dang good. Not as mild as Flatheads/Ops.

I eat them big blues but I won't eat them if there been skinned, it leaves that nasty silver stuff. If you fillet like you do a speck or any other fish it will be fine.

Bluecat all depends on size and where they were caught. A 3 to 5 pound blue cat filet blackened is hard to beat.
