Mahi is hard to beat.

I love some blackened grouper.

No one said it but I find it hard to beat redfish on the pit.

Fried bass is one of my favorite too

We caught 125 Pacific Seabass two weeks ago. Have not had a chance to cook it up yet but looking forward to it. I do not know how they compare to Chilean Seabass which is what you typically get in nice restaurants.

On this list it has to be tuna.
Start off by making an injectable marinade of butter thyme, rosemary, oregano, salt and pepper to taste. Melt butter and put in blender till it is all chopped and mixed good. Take the needle from your Cajun injector and inject the filets with the mixture. After injecting let the tuna sit in fridge for 6 to 8 hours. Take filets out of fridge and butter both sides of filet then salt and pepper filets. Coat bottom of black iron pot with olive oil and get very hot. Cook filets 30 seconds to one minute on each side depending on how you like yours cooked. I like mine rare so 30 seconds on each side is the max.
Next time you have some fresh tuna try this you will thank me later.

Got to go with the Red Fish in the scales cooked on the pit.
A little Italian dressing to keep them moist and finished with a lite coat of your favorite BBQ sauce.

lol!!!! Sorry i forgot that. Nothing like mullet in a red gravy. With some fried hardhead fillets on the side.

Mullet is terrible.
Fla. shrimper got me to try it in Cameron, once. Hated it.
He said they were better in Fla.
Went to a place called Triggers, between Perdido Key and Pensecola.
It was terrible over there too.

Ate some barramundi, I think that's how you spell it, at a restaurant in Ft Lauderdale and it was incredible. I believe it is native to Australia or New Zealand.

Dang, this thread has made me H U N G R Y for some good eats from the sea.

Long tail sea bass, scorpion fish are delicious. First time I've tried either of the tasty morsels this week. White dense meat.

Triple tail and trigger fish, can't believe no one said trigger.

sac-au-lait, crappie white perch, is probably the most favorite from La to Ks.

PS. If you ever get over to Milton Fl, Chet's Seafood will change your opinion of mullet. Pensacola bay mullet is probably one of the only places where mullet do not taste like mud. Sandy bottom I'm told.

When I first moved to Pensacola, my brother literally had to dragged my arse to a place called Rusty's to taste mullet backs, since, it's one of my favorite local net fish.

Tight lines,

Jimmy
