Taste Off - Kings or Coho

[idn713]

Eaten both and I gotta say I prefer the Ho's. Which do you guys prefer?

Coho.....not even a close call!!!!!

Spring caught Coho about 3 lbs in size..

No contest. Coho and a beer

[Storm Warning II]

KING!

[Capt Vince Pierleoni]

Spring Cohos are considered a delicacy all over the Great Lakes. If you are introducing a relatively new Lake Ontario fish eater to some fresh fillets, make sure it's a Spring Coho. That being said, it's all about the healthy fish fat. The larger Kings have more of it, and at times can have a "richer" taste. It can take more skilled preparation but King Salmon are rated one of the top food fish in the world when taste and nutritional benefits are considered.

Great Lakes wise, a spring Coho is hard to beat. Pacific caught King salmon are the best by far. Traveling to Seattle numerous times gave me a taste of truly good Salmon. The Pacific Kings feed mainly on Herring and Krill(the Krill providing the deep red color and rich flavor) That Herring and Krill diet is what provides the higher fat content and thus the better flavor. That can never be replicated in the Great lakes Kings. If you ever get a chance, try it ,you would be amazed at the difference.

As long as you are talking about feeding silver lake fish, they both taste great.

Nasty, slimy, black, river fish (AKA Mud Hens) on the other hand, not much you can do with those IMO, kings OR coho.

Some guy told me if you soak them in vineagar, they taste the same. I highly doubt that. Some people will eat anything and say it tastes great.

Irish salmon, fresh caught in the North Sea, scalding-hot chips & malt vinegar at Beshoff's in Howth, Co. Dublin! Ok - I'll have to try spring coho this year...

[idn713]

Hahaha very nice but I was referring to the great lakes salmon. And of course when they are silver only a numskull would eat them when they turn

Nothing beats Pacific King

[Mortigan]

I've had salmon here, California, Scotland & Ireland. Each is delicious but completely different - I love fresh seafood!

[raider44]

Walleye and yellow perch!!! Just not as fun to catch..

Atlantics taste the best

[shadster]

I often wonder how this Atlantic might have tasted. It would have been a lot cheaper to spice it up and try it I know that. I might even have been happier with it than I am of the Taxidermy....that is for another thread.
