Try some striped bass, cut into good sized chunks put into
ramkins and cover with shrimp bisque, bake at 350 for 20 minutes, cover with grated white cheese then put under the broiler for 4-5 minutes to brown. mmmmmmmm.
Striped bass is firm white flesh that is the best in fish eating, fried broiled smoked, SMOKED, its ambrosia!!
Plus it is usually a good sized fish with some filets weighing as much as 10 to 20 pounds. Pricey in the market
best fresh caught in the surf or fresh water rivers.
Terrific fighter too.
my best is 28lbs. but my 8year old nephews record is 35lbs.
28 lbs? 35 lbs! WOW. Those are very memorable catches. A friend of mine caught an 800-lb tuna in the Atlantic. Saw the photo, etc. But I couldn't resist referring to him as the Tuna Master, thereafter; the idea of such a catch being so mind boggling. He sold the Tuna to a Japanese firm and made quite a bundle.
I had to tell you this story in figurative retaliation for that mouth watering description of striped bass on a plate. Mmm-mm.
I can imagine a fight with a 28 pounder or a 35-pounder (not that I've had such an occurrance). But an 800 lb tuna catch had me imagining Captain Ahab, the white Whale, and the ever flapping arm as Ahab died, lashed to the beast. Beam me up...asap...
