That is a big one. I caught one on the Carbon that I brought home and fried in butter with salt and pepper (more of a saute). To me it tasted like a trout. I have heard they are very good smoked. In fact you can buy smoked whitefish online.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

Good fish to eat from what I hear. Never had it myself. Caught a little dinky one at the snoqualmie weekend before last. Threw him back though, wasn't big enough to even get a decent fillet out of it. Toni's recipe sounds good though. I'd try that.
When times get tough, just keep on fishin'!!!

I caught a 17 incher on the green last year and smoked it and it was very good

The Eskimos ruined me for white fish. Blech............
