So with all the 40+lb bass being kept, I'm putting out a world-wide internet request for requests on how to cook these big slabs of meat.
Do you cook them like filet mignon?
Do ya dry them and cook them like baccala?
Catching spring bass when the water is very cold is a good thing as the bass meat is pristine and firmer in the cold water.
Catching a bass and bleeding it out right away by slitting the throat and tail would be fantastic idea, because bleeding it out gives you better tasting meat.
However, in all of the pics where guys are holding up the 30 and 40# bass, I have not run across one pic yet where the bass has it's neck slit and was bled out...
Why is this?
Can enyone shed some light?
Thanks for your help, folks, especially if you can find me some recipes to cook the biggest bass..... :cool:
