Wiper and others.
This is from an old time whitie eater that prefers them over trout! Yeah, you heard me. I release most of my trout in the winter if I can catch whities because I prefer em. Yep, that's right, they are better eatun than trout!!!!!
First off, Basdsrods partially correct. Fillet em, remove the skin, pan fry em in butter with a dry coating like Panko and eat em up. Don't over cook them though to dry em out. That goes for any fish!!!
Second - they ain't oily, they are mild and soft textured!!
Third - don't smoke em! They are undoubtedly good that way but not worth the time unless you like the smoking flavor. For me, not worth the time. I've tried all the different chips and to tell ya the truth, can't tell the difference. Now maybe you folks can so have at it.!!!!
P.S. I have all sorts of hole with whities but haven't found the key to get them to bit. Problem may be that they can see me??? Anyway, any suggestions would be appreciated. they appear to be just starting to spawn.
