    Default Sauger vs. Crappie


    I caught a couple Sauger on the river this evening. I have never caught them before... From what I hear, they are good eating. I love Crappie and kind of find it hard to believe somthing could be better. I plan on finding out tommorrow after filleting them. The Buzz is, by fellow fishermen on the river that Sauger is much better eating than Crappie... Any input on that anyone?

    I will post pictures after I figure out how to do via iPhonebanghead
    Nothing like them FILLETS wrapped in your favorite Cornmeal Jackets...:D

    They are some good eating but I don't think I would say they are better than crappie.

    Sauger are good,,VERY good, we used to catch alot of them below the Dam here at Dardanelle in the winter months, but has been some time since I have been on them...I also wore the walleye out below the dam at webers falls Ok. way back yonder, I wonder why we don't have walleye on down here, maybe water is a bit too warm?

    Roll 'em in cracker crumbs, and saute in butter and EVO---hard to beat. They are a little stronger tasting than crappie or walleye, but mighty good.

    I catch them in my nets in the Arkansas River all the time this time of year. Find you the deepest water around and they'll be there.
