I heard they had too many bones but are good canned.

That's the "northern" way of doing it. The method called "scoring" is basically scaling the fish, filleting it skin-on, then slicing it into chips (on the skin), breading and deep frying. The hot oil essentially softens the small bones, and the scoring allows the oil to penetrate deep enough to soften them. Redhorse and hogsuckers are probably some of the best eating suckers, and bled-out buffalo close behind that. The best fish are from clean water, bled, and iced down- some can get a bit muddy/fishy if you're fishing a mud pit.

Quick tutorial below.

 
We have ascoring machine makes every cut at once and no mud here to worry about they are good eating
