I caught a few large mouth bass this morning, how should I cook them?

Question

Should I filet them and pan fry them or should I bake them with lemon and pepper?

Answer 1

I love'em filleted and fried, but the baking would be a good change of pace to try.

Answer 2

A good recipe for the oven and when camping you can do it right on the coals is:

Slice 2 ribs of  Celery

dice 1 large carrot

Slice 1 large Sweet Onion

Garlic, Salt, Pepper, Onion Powder, and some spicy seasoning

Butter

Foil, 2 long strips laid cross ways.

Wash and pat filets dry, Season well,

Place vegtables on middle of foil, season, Dot with small chunks of butter (about a tablespoon), lay Filets on top, Wrap Foil bringing two sides up and sealing then the other too allowing a little space for steam.

Bake at 350 degree preheated oven about 30 minutes.

YUMMMM...

Enjoy

Answer 3

Answer 4

cut off all the skin and guts put it in tin foil with some mayo and cook it on the grill

Answer 5

I generally don't like the taste of Bass. I'd perfer to catch and release bass but I don't blame people who eat them. I'd definately pan fry them. Soak them in some salt water for awhile (some people soak fish in milk and onions if it's too fishy tasting of a meat). Fry Krisp is a good seasoned breading to use and easy to find in any stores. You can add some Cayanne pepper or red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the batter mix if you like a little zest. Dip the fillets in an egg/water mix and shake in a bag of krisp and fry. Happy eating.

Answer 6

bluegill taste much better.

But i would filet them and then release all future catches.
