Favorite way to cook your muskies?

[bigdipper]

No - i don't eat my muskies... i really never eat any fish that i catch b/c there's nothing better than watching them swim away safely to fight again another day after you release them... but thanks for playing along and being good sports. (most of you!)

I watched a guy last year keep EVERY single fish he caught (walleyes, perch, sunfish, etc.) and it was such a turnoff - but i couldn't bring myself to say anything to this old meat fisherman.

Like there is something with keeping your fish?You/anyne try to tell me what to do with my legally caught fish and I will flip ya the bird!!!!

[bigdipper]

there is nothing wrong with it - when done legally.

the person i referenced above would go out in the morning - limit out... and then repeat the process at least 3x per day. it was disgusting after seeing that happen for 3 or 4 days straight.

the guy owned a brand new lund fisherman and was someone of means - so i know he wasn't starving which seemed to make it all the worse.

hey if you need to keep a couple for the table - i have no problem with that when done within the bounds of the law. but don't make a pig out of yourself b/c that is revolting.

and DEFINITELY don't keep muskies!!!!!!!!!!

HOW ABOUT DIPPING YOUR ARMS AND LEGS IN THE OVEN UNTIL GOLDEN BURNT (3RD DEGREE) TASTES LIKE STUPID HUMAN...

Now that you all brought it up, I'll have to try some breaded and fryed. I enjoy a fried pike and they can't taste much different. Can always use them to fertilize the rose garden if they don't turn out to be good.

There is a receipe for planked fish where you throw the fish away and eat the plank. Probably applies to musky.

Years ago my grandpa kept a muskie he caught (no idea why) and brought it home. He filleted it out, and baked it with a liberal amount of cajun seasoning and some lemon. It was absolutely delicious!

Now, I'll never keep a muskie, but they sure are fine to eat.
