I have a great recipe for Carp:Salt, Pepper & Lemon JuicePlace the Carp on a Cedar plankCook at 375 for 15 min., turning once.Remove from oven, throw out the Carp, eat the plank.
Bluegill is one of the BEST tasting of fresh water fish! I was brought up eating that scrapper! In order of taste (fresh water): large mouth bass, bluegill, northern pike (pickerel, pike) and walleye. BTW, walleye is not a true pike. Look it up!
Did you know that fish that are tossed back gets caught time and time again? While at college we tagged fish that were caught in a pond. After a month of catching and releasing, the only fish we caught were those that were tagged. We then carefully drained the pond and found that over half of the fish had never been caught.

The Bluegill got the bait and freedom. Not so lucky for fish that is desired.

If it’s undesirable, you toss it on the bank, not back in the lake.

IMHO Bluegill is far better than Pickerel (AKA; Pike, Walleye). Possibly I just never had any that was prepared properly.

If you can find any Bluegill or Sunfish of a decent size, they are a fantastic panfish.
Unfortunately they have been so heavily fished out in places that you can only find tiny things.
