[#0000ff]All members of the sunfish family, including largemouth bass, can develop a weedy or muddy taste as the water warms and gets weedier. If they hang out in shallow warm water, that does not get any current running through it they tend to get more of an "off" taste. They are much better during the winter or early spring.[/#0000ff]

[#000000]Yep that's true! We found that out one time fishing for the bluegills or breams as they call them in the south. One pond has those very big paper plates gills and they did tasted muddy (or moss as my wife calls it) from the pond being too warm.[/#000000]
