My grandfather used to save the eggs from the catfish he caught.
And my grandmother would cook them for breakfast.
My grandfather loved them.
I have no idea how you cook catfish eggs.
Does any one here know how to cook them?
Thank You

they should stay clumped up well enough to dredge in flour, slice them into pieces and roll in flour, thats how we always did it, most of the eggs we ate weren't that mature though.

We used to eat the little sacs of eggs out of bass and bluegill. I always wanted my dad to save them, and we ate them, but I don't ever remember them being very good... very fishy tasting. It was something different though.

I never tried catfish eggs, but eat a lot of crappie and bream eggs in the spring. Don't break the egg sacs when you clean them, and you should have a V-patterned sac. Roll in corn meal, salt and pepper and fry in hot grease. Be careful, because they will probably burst open and splash grease when they reach a certain temperature. Enjoy

How long do you fry it?
And how do you know when they are done?
Thanks for the replies.
