Couldn't a lot depend on the quality of water they're coming out of? I've not eaten a wild-caught BG for years but I (and family and friends) have eaten a ton of BG out of my pond over the past several months and they are outstanding! And I wouldn't put my water quality at optimal, certainly not clear!
For me, I've even put them above the Crappie that I've been catching out of my pond for the past 3 years (culled over 3,000).
We eat a lot of fish
PS - no side by side taste test with wild-caught but certainly no complaints with the BG out of my pond, and I always have some breaded and ready for the fryer (but I also bake plenty, not breaded)
