IS THIS FISH EDIBLE? Buffalo Catch Clean & Cook

Is a smallmouth buffalo fish edible? In today's fishing adventure I'm going fishing for what some fishermen consider a carp species, but it's actually in the sucker family and the meat looks good!

Not sure what went wrong here but buffalo is honestly some of the best fish you can eat. Maybe the ones in Texas are different lol. Sucks that you had a bad experience.

That's one heck of a bite alarm! Lol

My grandmother would pressure cook carp and buffalo with an olive oil and spice mixture that would make them taste just like canned salmon, it was good eating with crackers when out on the boat. Didn't have to worry about bones because they were soft and edible She would always put the fish in a freshwater spring to "clean them out" before processing.

As a European where it is more or less common to eat carp, here are a few tips for the preparation of carp:

I have had Buffalo ribs and they are awesome! Remove ribs and season and fry. Rib will stick out on both ends and it reminds me of buttery popcorn. Ideal size is 5 to 8 lbs.

I almost hit the deck when that siren went off!

Here in Central Missouri we go gigging when the water gets cold and buffalo along wit other sucker fish are the target. If you’ve ever had buffalo out of cold water you would change your mind. As for the little bones the fish needs to be scored, a process of making shallow cuts across the filets every quarter inch or less and cutting the bones into small pieces. You need to use a corn meal based breading and get it into the score marks. Then deep fry the fish for one of the best fish you could ask for.

I appreciate what you do man out there fishing in 98° weather to make a video for us. I couldn’t do it I don’t believe being from Maine that type of temperature would kill me. Thanks for the Contant always look forward to your videos.

Love the adventurous spirit!!

It's great to see buffalo getting more respect (even if you didn't enjoy eating it lol). That fish could have easily been older than you so it's always a shame when people just shoot them for fun or 'fertilizer'. Love the videos

Here in Louisiana we call that a blue buffalo and is a real delicacy-Especially the ribs in a sauce called a courtbouilon -served with rice 😊

[@nathanielflores4845]

Your shore fishing videos are so good

[@arcadio9203]

Lol...love your videos. You should incorporate that big fish alarm. Me and my fiance were laughing this morning.
