I was wondering how many keep or have eaten gafftop catfish. I've heard they were good, but never have tried them. Well today I took the plunge. I caught two 4-5 pounders today while fishing big lake. Didn't have many specks so I said lets do this. Filleted them and soaked in salted water for about an hour, cut them up bite size and smacked them in the grease. Guess what? Not bad, not bad at all. In fact they were quite good. Not sure how they would hold up being frozen for any length of time, but fresh they were good. Might just have to keep them a little more often.
