Get yourself on one of those boat fishing trips where rods n bait are included, you will allways be garenteed < lol to catch maceral , caught n eaten within an hour taste like nothing else youve ever tasted.
Theres a world of difference between "frozen fresh" at sea and the real thing "fresh"..try it. | |

Posted: 5/13/2008 9:47:36 PM | I'm excited for the July 4th week. I'm taking my brother and father out deep sea fishing off the shore. I'm hoping the bluefish are running but its not quite the right time of season.
Either way, usually we catch enough fish to last for weeks! | |

Baked, grilled, broiled, fried, steamed, poached...COOKED!
Of course, some don't agree...like that green eyed lady up above.

Posted: 5/14/2008 7:10:18 AM | One time, I was cooking up some haddock fillets for me and my kids. Just a little salt, pepper and medium-high heat in the fry pan. For the last bit, I threw in some lemon juice. Yum.
Also a huge fan of sushi. Strange, but I used to look down on it as a "yuppy" affectation. Now, I eat it practically every week. | |

Posted: 5/14/2008 9:26:26 PM | Oh don't get me wrong...I LOVE fish prepared various ways. I love it with panko bread crumbs and sauteed until golden brown in olive oil in a pan, grilled, fried, steamed in brown parchment paper....you NAME it...I just prefer it to be sashimi ...very fresh...i.e., tuna and salmon being my favorite and ix-nay the rice.
Hello to my friend up there who likes it COOKED...lol

Posted: 5/15/2008 12:54:07 AM | | I was camping on the beach and caught a small Papio just as the sun was setting. Went from the ocean to the bbq in about a minute and a half and I agree maceral man. Nothing like it. Same thing with a lobster once, though I didn't spear him. | |

fresh catch
A little bit of Drakes Batter.
A little Old Bay spice.
Deep pan and fill it at least 2" deep in oil.
Get the oil as hot as you can without burning down your house.
Have with some steamed veggies and home maid bread or corn bread.

Posted: 5/20/2008 10:09:22 AM | | yes fresh fish, but if it isnt prepared ( cleaned correctly) you wont get hte full benefits from it. I usually trout and or salmon fish atleast once a week. I fillet all my fish. The skinning is key. i like to leave approx 1/4 inch of meat on the skin. This will keep the finished fillet free of all the dark fat that is connected to the skin. This will give the fish a very "fishy strong taste" Even walleye and panfish. Trust me its the prolly the most simple yet effect trick to make your fish taste better. Salmon I love to wrap in foil with a spoonful or two of chuky salsa and throw on the grill. Trout I cut into small nuggets. dry batter and fry in canola oil....Fresh coleslaw, tops its off. | |

Posted: 6/3/2008 2:56:02 AM | EGAD>>> I thought you where discussing canabilisum when I first read this thread title! I had visions of the members of this site being broiled up in a big pot!
Seriously thou, We in Australia are blessed with many,many Fresh fish outlets. Most of our cities are situated on the shoreline and nearly all Piers,Jetties and the like are associated with the fishing industry,From commercial enterprises to charter boats. Should one be in the mood, it is a simple thing to join a charter boat for only a few dollars, and catch your own fish! (Rods and bait are supplied!) You now might understand why we are called the lucky country!
Its not uncommon to be driving up a main road and have a outlet selling a trawlers morning catch from a caravan on the side of the road! Such is the scale (NO pun intended) of our fishing industry
Naturarally fresh is best and its only rarely we see frozen (As in a day or more) fish, UNLESS its been imported from Thailand or Vietnam. At least we only see that in the larger supermarket chains
The frozen fish does have a distinctly blande taste!
Our Freshwater fishing industry is equally efficient with Fresh (Not Frozen) Trout, Cod and other varieties available every day of the week!
I'm so glad I love fish!
A Recipe:
Naturally clean your fish And leave the head and skin on...Dont skin it!!!
Ingriediants
One good sized fish
Jucie of one orange
jucie of one lemon
sprig of lemongrass
slight sprinkle of balsamic vinigar

Throw Potatoes into fire coals
Lay out thick.wet newspaper and lay fish in it! Paper should be full edition..Not pages of
Have another ale
pour on juice of lemon , orange and balsamic and lemon grass!
Wrap up fish in newspaper and throw into coals
Enjoy another ale (About 12 Minutes) Paper should be starting to burn properly on out side
Carefully dig out potatoes and fish
Peel burnt potatoes of skin......Should have beautifully cooked spuds by now!
Unwrap fish...BE CAREFUL NEWS PAPER WILL BE HOT AND FULL OF STEAM!!!
Enjoy beautifully Steamed fish with baked potatoe

Posted: 6/3/2008 4:34:47 AM | | White fish, bass, trout! All great fish to eat fresh. To me? Doing them up with some olive oil and lemon juice is best. I think breading takes away some of the natural flavours! | |

Posted: 6/3/2008 4:36:47 AM | For Camping:
Place cleaned fish or fillets in heavy duty foil with a nice pat of butter on a bed of thin sliced julienned carrots, celery, sweet onion and potatoes.
Add a splash of wine, season with salt and pepper and a crushed clove of garlic, then place a layer of very thin sliced lemon over the fish.
Seal tightly in foil, then bake in hot coals of campfire 20 - 30 minutes. Serve on paper plate in foil.
Works well with shrimp or chicken breast fillets as well. | |

Posted: 6/3/2008 5:13:25 AM | Love fresh Mackerel, however since moving to Aus, have to settle for Snapper, Cod, Sweet lip and Flathead to name a few....
I'm heading to my fav place in a couple of weeks and all the above will be present, the place is that good, also Tailor 3-4kg fish, anyways my preferred cooking technique is this...
Clean and Fillet but do not scale or skin.
Skin down on foil, add butter, salt, pepper and herbs (Rocket/mixed baby asian leaves etc)
Your choice, i do like some rocket.
Wrap in silver foil and cook
Option1 BBQ
Option 2 Oven
Option 3 yep Microwave (no foil obviously)
For microwave, skin down on plate, same preparation, cover with Kitchen roll
2-3 mins depending on size of fillet. Be careful not to overcook, you ruin it if over cooked in a microwave...........
but excellent for quick fresh fish.
Believe me i've filled my freezer with fresh fish and spent the next couple of weeks enjoying the great taste as described above.
The secret in eating it is to take the flesh off the skin and bones, leaving the skin untouched on the plate/foil. That way you can eat right up to under the skin and with practice the scales/skin stay on the foil/plate....
Bones are no problem when the flesh just flakes off..........Fantastic!!!

Posted: 6/3/2008 5:32:55 AM | | Ok I am a saltwater guy...Preperation when catching first is key..If you have a live well keep them alive till you get to the dock...if you don't and have to ice them make sure they stay cold....and bleed them...slit from below gill plate to other side below gill plate...then let them bleed out...use a mix of salt water and ice creating a brine to keep the fish fresh in your cooler...Fillet them and do not rinse in fresh water..rinse in salt once to get dirt off...fresh water make fillets soft...do not rinse with fresh water till you are preparing them for cooking..... pat dry...If you have to freeze them...Vacuum seal them...Flounder I like fried in italian bread crumbs.....Striper baked in the oven or on the grill...tuna on the grill or cut on the boat for Sushi....Any fish you can use a hi quality glass dish with a lid and micro wave....When u use the mic the fish is done in seconds compared to minuted...Fish must be of the same thickness to insure equlal cooking time..if you have any questions drop ma an emailll...Ed | |

Posted: 6/3/2008 8:24:26 AM | Go to Belmar New Jersey, and you could go deep sea fishing there on a charter with other people, or you can wait for the boats to come back, and buy from whoever doesn't want their fish from that days catch. You will love all that there, but get there early, they run out of fish really fast.  | |
