strange how locale makes different fish rank different on the food chain. up north they love bluefish, down here, grind em up for chum. i agree with you though, i think the different fish taste according to their food supply.

being from louisiana, you probably fish for sac-o-let(sp?) & gas-pa-goo(sp?). i worked in N.O. for 6 months and the locals went fishing for them every chance they had.

Sac-a-lait YES. That's a local name for White Perch, it doesn't get much better than that.

Gas-per-goo NO. That's a freshwater drum found in the ugliest, nastiest water like drainage canals.

i believe white perch in north florida is crappie or if you are north of I-10 "croppie" or east of the Suwanee river "speckled perch".

if people in La can't find a way to make it taste good, it must really be a nasty fish. i loved working over there. never had a bad meal anywhere. and usually the worst looking the place was on the outside, the better the food.

also worked in ocean springs ms, only place i ever saw anyone put french dressing on pizza.........

No fishing this weekend! It's been blowing 20 - 30 for days now. Guess I shouldn't complain with the beating that tornadoes have given the folks 200 miles north across the US.

Down around New Orleans, if you don't see a little rotten wood or peeling paint, the restaurant probably isn't worth stopping. Another tip to pass them by is if they have to advertise on the interstate.
