Prior to yesterday, I have only ever kept one wiper for the dinner table. I did not much care for the flavor, so since that time, I have always released any that I’ve caught.
Had a fun little day at Willard yesterday and caught a few crappie, half a dozen wipers and one decent walleye. Having read a few posts on here about some of you fellas who like to eat wipers, I thought I’d give it another shot.
For dinner I had fillets from 3 different species side by side on my plate for comparison.
Conclusion:
Walleye = delicious
Crappie = mighty tasty
Wiper = yuck
I’ve not met many fish that I don’t like, so perhaps I’m preparing them incorrectly or perhaps it’s just my personal preference. Do you guys prepare your wipers any differently than you do your walleye?
