I have been reading up on how to cook catfish. I have never tried catfish although I have heard it is good. Is catfish good to eat? What does it taste like? I'm sure this may seem like a dumb question to many of you, but I thought I would ask. I really like perch and trout as well as ocean fish. Are catfish simliar to perch? Also, do crappie and other panfish all taste the same? When I go to Lake Powell I always catch catfish, stripers, carp, panfish off the back off the houseboat. I was thinking this year I may keep a couple and cook them up down there to see how it works out. I always manage to catch a couple at Utah Lake every year also. Anyway, any info would be great. Thanks.
