What is Your favorite fish to eat?
Posted By: Phantom Fisherman

Re: Favorite fish - 05/28/07 01:03 PM

That is a tough question. I would have to rate ling, scamp grouper and amberjack way high on the list. Yellowfin tuna is great too. Never got to taste wahoo but I hear it is great. I guess my favorite would be whatever I happen to be catching at the time.

If I could only get to eat one kind of fish from the Gulf, it would HAVE to be amberjack.

Easily YFT sashimi for me!

Especially after a fillet has been slightly chilled -never frozen- and sometimes with a bit of wasabi/ginger/soy.

Cooked it would have to be Wahoo.

Hey Grizz!

I was in a hurry last night, and Shaked & Baked some trout I caught last Oct in the LLM.

Baked it for about 12 minutes, and that was the best fish (outside of sashimi) that I've ever tasted.

It had a lot to do with the shake&bake stuff, but that's all I had!

Salt Water.
Sillaginodes punctata King George Whiting, or any Whiting Species for that matter, would be one of the best Bread & Butter fish down here, followed closely by Platycephalus speculatorFlathead and then Acanthopagrus butcheri Black Bream.
Baked would have to be Chrysophrys auratus Snapper.
I'm yet to land a Yella Terra "Yellow Tailed King fish" same as up there,Seriola lanlandi Excellent fighters, can be compared to fighting with Pylons lol,
Up north they have some Black King's "Cobia" my guess is they taste just as bad. Scomberomorus commerson Spanish Mackerel taste better than Barramundi anytime , in my books.


Sweet water:
Would be Salmo trutta Brown Trout Fresh from on the Banks of the Hutt & Broughton river's junction MMmmmmmm thumb

By far the best fish to eat in the ocean is the Louvar. I don't believe it can be caught here in the gulf but when I owned my restaurant in San Diego and commercial fished, it was the best incidental catch you could dream of.
