Don't eat it. Either save it for the fall festival or sell it.

You can keep them or sell them, but keep in mind that only the Legendary Fish can be caught more then once. And that one can't be caught until you max out your Fishing skill and catch all other legendary fishes. I personally always keep all of them just to say I got them lol. It's a darn shame you can't mount them.

The game lore says this, but you can catch the Legend first, regardless of level and other fish caught... Only requirements are a rainy day in spring.

As far as keeping the fish versus selling or eating, all depends on you, if you need the cash, sell it, energy, eat it... A cool decoration, throw it on a table... I used to hoard everything until I got familiar enough with the game to know what to keep and what to sell (a dozen or so playthroughs will do that )... I throw legendary fish in the shipping bin now as they are a nice bump in cash early on (I catch all the legend (wait for it) ary in the first year while getting my farm up and running)
