Favorite fish to eat

I am excited to start togging and bring some fresh fish home for the family after a long winter. A successful cod outing got the ball rolling where I made a jumbo batch of cod cakes and put an avacado aioli sauce to kick it up. My favorite fish to eat is grouper and I prefer it blackened and in a sandwich.

Over an open pit fire drinking beer in VT? Been there, done that (not sure of the flour type). I agree, pretty damn good.

Really? I only eat 2 fish from from the fresh. Catfish prepared by a resturaunt and rainbow trout. Never ate a brookie. I think they are too purty! Lol. I love myself some striped bass and whole pan cooked scup. Don't care too much for Tog, fluke/flounder or seabass.

And smelt. Fresh pan fried whole. Packed with garlic and wet crushed red pepper and then rolled in seasoned flour. Fried in a shallow pan with olive oil until almost burnt looking. Adding more garlic half way through. Add some Portuguese cheese, bread and homeade wine! And can't forget the halved boiled potatoes topped with red wine vinegar and wet crushed pepper!

Oh yeah. Even better to eat it under a grapevine in the summer with some older greenhorns and homeade moonshine for dessert. Substitute the smelt with whole scup in the summer.

Day old Alaskan salmon in season...June, July, August...comes flash frozen next day.
Fresh Halibut
Fresh Haddock
Fresh Sole
Fresh Hake
Fresh dogfish...if someone did not tell U it was dogfish U would not know the difference.

Someone mentioned catfish from restaurant...it could be fresh water...saltwater cat fish is illegal to catch commercially at least in Mass.

In Florida in winter most Grouper is imported...they have a closed season.

90% of all fish is imported today.

Funny... I cooked fresh dogfish (fresh as in was alive, filleted and pan fried within a half hour) and it was the most vile fish I've eaten. Flavor started off OK but then left an awful aftertaste. None of us would eat more than a bite. Do you treat (marinade, soak in milk, ?) it at all beforehand?

I gotta tell ya, we took the sea trout we got fishing in sanibel fl last month and brought it to the Flamingo restaurant on captiva. 2 filets Mesquite Grilled, and the rest fried. So amazingly good. And if your bring your own catch, its like 9 bucks with a ceasar, and a side of fries or onion rings for the dinner. Cheapest and best meal we had all week

something clever and related to fishing

Grilled Swordfish would be my favorite finned fish.
Grilled prociutto wrappd sea scallops or sea clam pie (mom's recipe) for the non-finned fish fav.

Yup. If you like bows, you'll love brookies. At my camp in Maine, we keep them as close to the 6 inch minimum as possible. All of the larger fish get released.

ya know I've been meaning to post this question, can you do that anywhere in New England? Would be cool to bring in a striper and have some local chefs prepare for ya wouldn't it?
