I have only filleted and eaten wild YP from when we fish at my uncle's place in Canada.
Those fish are exceedingly tasty! (That is why I eventually want them in my Kansas pond.)
We mostly do catch and release up there, but do have one or two huge family fish fries of WE and YP on most trips. I have cleaned some very small YP on those days when the little kids didn't catch any big ones - but still wanted to make their contribution to the meal. And yes, even the little YP are a tasty morsel.
