For me, it depends on how you want to cook them. We like to put down a piece of alum foil on the grill and baste them in garlic and butter. Cook in about five min, turn them once and take them off. Bass taste pretty good this way, yellow perch even better, however crappie are too tender. They fall apart. If you are frying them up, then it's a different story. Everything's good fried up. 
9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
