Looks tasty!

How’d they taste it’s been awhile my wife used to like them back when I brought them home?

Nice healthy meal, looks great.

Id give LMB fillets 4 out 5 stars.

Not the best fish, but certainly good enough.

Keep it cold and eat it fresh of course, just like any fish

TO EACH THERE OWN...
Just after getting back into bass fishing 25 years ago I took the wife out so she could see what it was like, in a rental boat at Otay Lake. I had her row while I fished. She was like my trolling motor. We had barely left the docks, headed towards the dam, mostly in circles as she didn’t know how to row, and I caught one on a jerkbait. I was so happy. She took picture of it, and inadvertently just tossed it back in the water. She screamed bloody murder, and said “you know how much fish cost at the store"?. I felt bad and promised I would keep the next one. Needless to say, I didn’t get another one the rest of the day. Over the next three trips, we saved some. But after the third time eating them said, “you don’t have to keep them anymore“. I’ve always felt the same, they were a bit 'musty' to me. Now salmon and trout I like, even crappie to some extent, and any saltwater fish, yes sir I’m in. Love farm raised catfish, lake ones, naw, they too are to musty, probably from eating the mud with the dead fish on the bottom.

A porterhouse is better than a porkchop, but somtimes i eat porkchops too. "Shrug"
