Looks great Bill.

That's kind of you but the redfish is better.

skinner what time is dinner?

I wish I had some more! Need to go fishing.....

I have been thinking about this thread the last two days. I am out of reds and am toying with the idea of making a Central Market run to buy some. I wish I lived less than a 6 hour drive to the coast.

I did it one time with some hybrids, that a friend gave to me, but I like the saltwater fish the best. My favorites are redfish, snapper, and specks, in that order.

Those are all great Bill, but years ago I learned to love Sheepshead on the table better than most. Growing up in my family they were always considered a trash fish and were given away. A lot of folks just don't like to clean them. Kinda like pigs. That meat is pure white, very good texture, very good taste, just awesome and fun to catch but not always easy. IMO they are right there with Triple Tail and Mangrove Snapper and I like the Mangroves better than the reds, dog/mutton snapper, vermillions, Lane etc. Trigger Fish and Angel Fish are also excellent on the table, but are often overlooked because they are harder to clean. Anyway, a whole gutted/gilled/stuffed Sheepshead on the pit or Sheepshead on the half shell is some damn good eating. I shake my head when I think about both of my Grandpas and my Dad giving them away. Every time I eat a freshwater fish I am looking for some seasoning or something to put on it.
