I would put trout closer in taste to salmon. It has a pinkish type meat.

I just found out folks eat croaker. It's always been throwback or bait for me.
When I was a kid we would mop up on the pier at Bridgside Marina in GI at night. White trout and croakers were breakfast.

I've never discriminated against the white trout. They fry up nice. I was never aware that croaker was good. I'll start keeping the bigger ones and try them.

I literally never heard of people keeping croaker to eat before this thread.

No. IMHO
Spec tastes better, better texture
Rainbows, never developed a taste. Don't fight as good either...

Croakers are great. My dad always called them "bacon of the bayou". They fillet real easy and taste great.
White Trouts are great if eaten fresh. Hell, I've seen people turn their nose up at Ground Mullets. Thats damn good table fare too.

ditto that! it makes a great way to get kids (and some adults) into fishing saltwater.

agreed, but try putting them up frozen dry, ie not in a ziplock filled with water. i found they kept better. not great, but better.

Vacuum seal dry with food saver is key to the frozen fish kingdom. You just gotta be willing to fool with the machine and etc.
