[QUOTE=nor-easter]When you fillet or steak the fish rinse in ocean water. Never rinse Striped Bass in FRESH water until just before you prep it for cooking. The FRESH water reacts with the flesh of the Bass and begins to sour the flesh at once.
I have a dumb question, please educate me on this. I agree rinsing your fish in salt water, just like it's better to boil your lobsters, etc. in salt water. But in Mass. don't you legally have to keep the fish whole while transporting back home, gutted of course?
