Well Bass and Salmon are the best fighters...but this little fish is not among the top eating fish or a fish you want on your line, but the bullhead is one strongest fighting little fish. When I was twelve at a cabin up north, I put a worm and bobber out and went to climb trees. I noticed my bobber was down and that bullhead fought so hard and I was sure it was a bass. Boy was I surprised by a 5 inch bullhead.
The second big bite felt like a anchor. I use to fish the Fox River as teen every chance I could get. We would use hot dogs and marshmellows sometime and catch carp for fun and throw them back. One day I had a bite that took a half hour to get in and two guys to net. I caught a 48" channel cat. Nice catch but I returned it back to the Fox river.
My favorite freahwater fish to eat are walleye and then perch.
I like salmon baked and love rainbow trout pan fried.
Pike boiled with butter is ok too if you know how to remove that tricky Y bone.
